Cedarwood Oil

Specifications:

Cedar oil, also known as cedarwood oil, is an essential oil derived from various types of conifers, most in the pine or cypress
botanical families. It is produced from the foliage, and sometimes the wood, roots, and stumps which have been left after cutting
of trees for timber extraction. It has many uses in cine, art, industry and perfumery, and while the characteristics of oils
derived from various species may themselves vary, all have some degree of bactericidal and pesticidal effects.

Extraction:
Although termed cedar or cedarwood oils, the most important oils are produced from distilling wood of a number of different
junipers and cypresses (of the family Cupressaceae), rather than true cedars (of the family Pinaceae). Similar oils are distilled,
pressed or chemically extracted in small quantities from wood, roots, and leaves from plants of the genera Platycladus, Cupressus,
Taiwania, and Calocedrus.
