Saro.
Saro, Cinnamosma fragrans from Madagascar, organically produced, wildcrafted and steam-distilled from the leaves: fresh and camphorous like Tea Tree at first, drying down to lemon and a pretty, fruity floral.

About this product
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.
