Cypress smells like a walk through a forest on a clear morning — clean, fresh, and slightly resinous, without the heaviness that can come with pine or spruce. Steam-distilled from the needles and twigs, it arrives undiluted and single-botanical, woody without being oppressive.
Cypress has a long history in classic and spiritual practices since ancient Greece and Egypt, and in a diffuser its fresh, woody character creates a genuinely clearing effect; blended with frankincense and cedarwood it's a grounding meditation combination, or with juniper berry and lemon for a fresh daytime atmosphere.
Diluted into a carrier oil, cypress is a classic favorite for an invigorating leg massage applied with upward strokes, and its fresh, clean character makes it a genuine natural deodorizer for any indoor space.
As with any essential oil, dilute before skin contact and patch test first; those who are pregnant should consult a healthcare provider before use.
