Overview: Camphor Essential Oil is used as an ingredient in vapour rubs, balms and fragrances. Camphor Oil is produced by steam distillation of leaves and bark of Cinnamomum Camphora. The camphor tree and its oil are historically recognised for its use as a fumigant during the days of plague. Even though there are four varieties of camphor oils available, only the white camphor oil is used in aromatherapy. The tree is native to Japan and Taiwan but is vastly cultivated in China. We supply the Chinese origin Camphor Essential Oil, tested and packed in Grasse, France.
