Living Libations Cedar Essential Oil, also known as Atlas or Atlantic Cedarwood, is a rare, steam distillation from wild trees growing in France. Cedar is a more refined fragrance than Moroccan Cedar Bark. Though they are both distillations from the same tree, Cedar Essential Oil is a more precious distillation using only the finest pieces to distill. This brings a complexity and depth to the range of scents in this cedar bouquet. It has a deep, sustained effect rather than the sharper oils such as Oregano and Thyme. It has a calming centering influence and is beneficial to the skin.

~ Suzanne Fischer-Rizzi, Complete Aromatherapy Handbook
