Cedarwood Oil Atlas

Cedarwood Atlas essential oil is also known as “Moroccan” Cedarwood Oil. The oil is entirely different chemically and organoleptic properties from the American Virginia or Texas Cedarwood oils. The tree, Cedrus Atlantic, is a pine, not a Cypress (such as the American and East African Cedars). It is believed that the Atlas Cedar is originated from the famous Lebanon Cedars which grow wild in Lebanon and in the island of Cyprus, now protected from being felled for essential oil.
