Chinese Cedarwood Essential Oil

Chinese Cedarwood Essential Oil is steam distilled from the wood of Chamaecyparis funebris (the Chinese weeping cypress) — despite the trade name, this is botanically a cypress rather than a true cedar. It gives a warm, woody oil valued in its own right for fragrance work.

At Kush Aroma Exports, our Chinese cedarwood is steam distilled from selected wood to preserve its warm, woody character. As one of India's leading essential oil manufacturers — a trusted essential oil manufacturer, supplier and exporter, we supply every batch with verifiable purity.

The Weeping Cypress

Chinese Cedarwood is an evergreen tree or shrub widely distributed across the Guizhou, Gansu and Sichuan provinces of China. Aromatic cedar chests have traditionally been used to store woollen articles.

This oil generally carries a lower cedrol content than the American cedarwoods, so it is often used in its own right for fragrance rather than as a cedrol source.

Harvesting & Extraction

Chinese Cedarwood essential oil is steam distilled from the wood, yielding a warm, dry-woody oil. Learn more about how we work on our distillation of essential oil page.
