Virginian Cedarwood Essential Oil

$9.99 – $17.99 USD

“Virginian”, or Eastern red cedarwood esssential oil is steam distilled from the heartwood of the Juniperus virginiana tree. It is a slow growing tree common to colder and higher elevation regions of the eastern United States and south east Canada. Despite the common name of cedarwood, the botanical name highlights the fact that the tree is of the Juniper family, and not a true “Cedar”. It has been used for centuries by Native Americans for various purposes, such as medicine and perfumery.
