Cedarwood's backstory

Cedarwood essential oil is steam distilled from the wood of the mighty cedar tree and has a myriad of benefits. In Ancient Egypt, cedarwood's properties made it valuable for use in mummifying procedures.

When applied topically, Cedarwood has skin-cleansing properties. This oil is also frequently used in massage therapy.
