Cinnamon brings warming relief to the body and creative inspiration to the mind. Pungent, spicy and warming, cinnamon nourishes and restores the body's own ability to produce a healing response. Applied topically in extremely low dilution in a carrier oil, cinnamon oil assists in restoring ease and comfort to tired, fatigued or overworked muscles and joints.

Diffuse cinnamon to energize a sluggish mind and inspire creativity, to awaken the senses and stimulate the appetite. Traditionally, it is used as a spice in cooking in ground or powdered form, and as a stimulant tonic to increase metabolic activity. Cinnamon can also be used to create a sensual atmosphere, so add this exotic spice to a blend of ginger, cedar, and vetiver in your diffuser.

Ceylon Cinnamon Essential Oil Profile

This luscious cinnamon oil is distilled for Floracopeia from leaves on a sustainable 25-acre farm in Sri Lanka. The leaves are dried and steam-distilled in handmade equipment according to age-old local wisdom. Each distillation takes about 9 hours and, after separating the oil by hand, yields about 3kg of pure essential oil. The hydrosol is then reused for the next batch and the leaves, from which the oil has just been extracted, are immediately dried in the warm breeze and reused as fuel for the next batch, so the process is entirely self-sustaining.

The botanical name is Cinnamomum zeylanicum, sometimes also called Cinnamomum verum (“true cinnamon”). It is generally referred to as Ceylon cinnamon, Ceylon being the old, pre-independence name for Sri Lanka, the native home of true cinnamon. This is an important distinction as most of the cinnamon and cinnamon oil available in the US is actually Cinnamomum cassia, which is a poor cousin of true cinnamon.

Other Ways to Use Ceylon Cinnamon Essential Oil
