- Ho Wood essential oil, known by its Latin name, Cinnamomum camphora, is steam distilled from the bark, twigs, and wood of the Ho Wood tree found in China. As a wood oil, it is great to use for in creating a sense of peace and calm to reduce stress in disquieting situations. It goes superbly well in blends for meditation to ease worry and bring about an introspective mood.
- Ho Wood has properties that are pain relieving, anti-inflammatory, calm anxieties and stress, stimulates the immune system and eases muscle spasm. Ho Wood can also be used in blends to fight microbes and fungal infections (especially candida). It has the ability to create an impression of serenity and balance the mind. Its anti-inflammatory and antiseptic qualities make it a go-to oil in blends for skin issues including cuts, wounds, acne and eczema. With its ultra-high content of the component linalool, this oil can help treat anxiety and depression as well as help contend with sleeplessness.
- Even though Ho Wood is steam distilled from the wood of the tree, is a middle note instead of a base note as most wood oils are. Its high linalool content gives it sweet, woody and slightly floral notes reminiscent of Lavender. But the longer you let it linger, you will find hints of camphor emerging. It has a radiance and warmth that make it incredible in blends with other florals, woods and citrus oils. It can bring happiness and joy as well as blend well in meditation blends for introspection.
- Due to Ho Woods’ incredibly high amount of Linalool (up to 98% in some cases), it is found to be incredibly similar to Rosewood Oil which generally contains about 85% Linalool. The major issue with Rosewood is that it is a threatened species plus the cost of the oil is higher due to this same issue. Ho Wood is a fantastic “cousin” essential oil with its similar aromatics and benefits making it a superb money saving essential oil substitute.
- As an essential oil from the wood of the tree, Ho Wood essential oil blend extremely well with other woods, herbs, flowers and citrus essential oils. Try out a blend for sleep with Roman Chamomile, Cedarwood and Rose. For focus and mental stimulation blend it into a massage oil with Rosemary and Lemon and Basil. For skin issues, add it to face and body wash soaps with unscented Castille soap with Sandalwood, Rosemary and Lavender. Always follow our dilution chart guidelines and test new oils and blends on the inner arm of the skin for potential skin irritation.
