CYPRESS
Cypress has a fresh, green, woody, and slightly resinous aroma. It offers a crisp, clean scent reminiscent of forests and Mediterranean landscapes. The fragrance is sharp yet smooth, with a slightly balsamic and herbaceous undertone that evokes images of evergreen trees and fresh outdoor environments.
Origin & Extraction
Cypress essential oil is primarily extracted from the needles, branches, and cones of the Cupressus sempervirens tree, native to the Mediterranean region, particularly in countries like Italy, France, and Greece. The oil is typically obtained through steam distillation, which captures the volatile aromatic compounds of the plant.
