Eucalyptus Smithii: Eucalyptus smithii (R.T.Baker)
Why eucalyptus smithii? This is the perfect oil if you're looking for the aromatic benefits of eucalyptus ... only a little less intense. Eucalyptus smithii essential oil has a similar aroma to Eucalyptus globulus, but is slightly milder and a bit woodier. It is an ideal oil to use in steams and invigorating homemade body scrubs, soaps, balms, and bath salts.
Quality Assured: Our organic Eucalyptus smithii essential oil is sustainably sourced from South Africa. The oil is steam distilled from the leaves. Every batch of oil is Certified Organic by Oregon Tilth and produced without the use of genetic engineering, artificial fertilizers, or pesticides. Additionally, our expert aromatherapists here at the Apothecary Shoppe personally assess all of our oils—using touch, taste, smell, and lab analyses—to ensure that your essential oil is suitable for use and entirely free of adulterants.
Independent third-party lab reports including GC/MS and pesticide testing results are available upon request. Please send a request to apothecary@achs.edu and include the essential oil Latin name and lot number; results include a comparative analysis with ISO and the Pharmacopeia when available.
