Eucalyptus Radiata Essential Oil

Eucalyptus Radiata Essential Oil

Eucalyptus radiata

Eucalyptus radiata is steam distilled from the leaves of a tree in the Myrtaceae family. Our batches come from Australia, Eswatini, and South Africa, from certified organic, organically grown, and wildcrafted plants. The aroma is fresh and camphoraceous, a clear top note.

This oil leads with the oxide 1,8-cineole, typically 65-73% in our batches. That's the molecule most often turned to for respiratory comfort and clear breathing, and it also contributes antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties. Behind it sit the monoterpenol α-terpineol (typically 8-13%) and limonene (typically 3-7%), which round out that cool, clarifying character people love in eucalyptus.

Every batch we bring in is independently GC-MS tested, and the full report for each one lives right here on this page. You can see exactly what's in the bottle before you open it.
