About this material

Cedarwood Oil Terpenes opens with a dry, woody scent that has a slightly balsamic undertone, reminiscent of fresh-cut cedar. As it develops, the aroma becomes more rounded and smooth, with a subtle earthiness that adds depth without overwhelming the other notes. This material acts as a grounding element in a formula, providing a solid base that enhances both floral and citrus notes, making them feel more substantial. It pairs well with other woods, such as sandalwood or vetiver, and can also complement herbal notes like rosemary or sage. The typical usage in formulas ranges from 0.418% to 9.03%, with a common dose around 2.500%.
