Product Description

Ground and uplift with the clean, evergreen fragrance of Cypress Essential Oil. Also known as Mediterranean Cypress, this essential oil is steam distilled from the pine needles of the Cupressus sempervirens tree and evokes the warm embrace of a verdant forest. Its aroma is woody, earthy, and slightly smoky.

A rich source of anti-inflammatory compounds, Cypress essential oil can function as a topical antispasmodic that releases muscle tension while promoting cardiovascular health. It also has coagulant properties to control excess bleeding. This benefit of Cypress essential oil makes it a powerful healing agent for first-aid balms and other home remedies. 

When you diffuse Cypress in your home, office, or other space, you’ll purify the air from germs and pollutants while creating a tranquil atmosphere that helps with stress and depression. Cypress aromatherapy uses include boosting memory recall, increasing focus and concentration, and helping with mood imbalances.

Enjoy Cypress essential oil to feel more connected with the earth while sanitizing your home. It’s perfect for DIY products like homemade candles, soaps, bath bombs, skincare, haircare, and room sprays. The deep, woody scent of Cypress is also highly popular with men and makes a great selection for men’s personal care products.

Faqs

Cypress Essential Oil FAQ

  • What does Cypress essential oil smell like?

    Cypress essential oil has a woody aroma that’s smoky, dry, and earthy. It evokes a feeling of security and strength while calling to mind the quiet solemnity of a grove of sturdy trees. Although anyone can enjoy the aroma of Cypress, it’s considered a masculine essential oil that is often used in men’s colognes, beard oils, deodorants, and body washes. This scent is an excellent choice for nature fans and anyone who loves the outdoors.

  • Can I use Cypress oil for skin?

    Yes, when properly diluted with a carrier oil, you can apply Cypress directly to the skin for anti-inflammatory healing benefits. The benefits of Cypress oil for skin include treating acne and blemishes, exfoliating dead skin cells, reducing the appearance of pores, fine lines, and wrinkles, and stimulating collagen production for a plumper and more youthful look. Try adding a few drops of Cypress to your regular cleanser or moisturizer to add more hydration.

  • Does Cypress essential oil help with bleeding?

    Cypress essential oil is known to have natural coagulant properties that may promote blood clotting and help control excess bleeding. Try dabbing a small amount of Cypress (diluted with a carrier oil) to reduce bleeding in small wounds, such as paper cuts or razor nicks from shaving. However, if you are experiencing a major injury resulting in blood loss or have a medical condition such as hemophilia, please consult your doctor immediately before using essential oils.

  • Does Cypress keep bugs away?

    Yes! Cypress trees are rich in compounds that naturally repel insects. In fact, many people use Cypress mulch in their yards and gardens as an organic insect repellent. By diffusing Cypress essential oil or using it topically with carrier oil, you can keep away pesky insects like mosquitoes, flies, ticks, fleas, and more.
