Product description

Himalayan Cedarwood BIO by Damascena is a 100 % pure essential oil with a woody, warm and balsamic fragrance. It is obtained by steam distillation from the wood of Himalayan cedar, identified in the product documentation as Cedrus deodora. The plant material comes from certified organic wild collection. The current batch comes from Nepal; the oil is bottled by hand in Switzerland.

Himalayan cedar from Nepal

For this cedarwood essential oil, Damascena uses wood from certified organic wild collection. The label on the supplied bottle confirms Nepal as the origin of the current batch.

The oil is obtained by steam distillation of the wood. According to the supplier, approximately 30 kg of wood are needed to produce 1 kg of essential oil. The resulting oil retains the characteristic woody and balsamic fragrance of the raw material.

Fragrance profile of Himalayan cedar essential oil

The fragrance is characterised by warm woody notes and balsamic facets. Damascena describes Himalayan cedar oil as milder than Atlas cedar oil. It therefore offers a softer approach to fragrance compositions centred on a warm woody note.

The supplier classifies the essential oil as a base and heart note. It can shape both the woody centre of a blend and its balsamic background. Bright citrus notes and floral accents can be built upon this foundation.

Himalayan cedar in fragrance compositions

Grapefruit, orange and bergamot complement the warm woody character with bright citrus facets. Lavender adds a floral-herbal accent, while jasmine and ylang-ylang expand the combination with fuller floral notes.

For resinous and predominantly woody blends, Damascena names frankincense, rock rose, sandalwood and rosewood, among others. Spikenard, cypress and Swiss stone pine are also listed as fragrance partners. Depending on the combination, Himalayan cedar essential oil can serve as a supporting woody note or as a soft balsamic background.
