## About
Read the Latin name and you expect cinnamon. Open the bottle and you meet something else entirely: a cheery, uplifting oil that changes as it rests on a scent strip, like a story told in three parts.Saro is Cinnamosma fragrans Baillon, organically produced and wildcrafted in Madagascar and steam-distilled from the leaves. At first it smells fresh and camphorous, in the family of Tea Tree, Niaouli and Cajeput, with something of all three. As it dries down a trace of citrus appears, definitely lemony, and a longer dry down brings a slightly fruity, floral note reminiscent of Palmarosa, but prettier. If you love the aroma of Tea Tree, this is one to try.Energizing and uplifting, it is a bright choice for the diffuser, and lovely in a massage blend with a touch of a warming oil such as Ginger or Allspice.DetailsBotanical name: Cinnamosma fragrans BaillonOrigin: Madagascar, organically produced and wildcraftedMethod: steam distillation of the leavesHow to useDiffuse a few drops, or dilute it in a carrier oil before it touches skin.
