How much do I need?

Cinnamon Cassia essential oil is not subtle, and it is not meant to be. 

Distilled from Cinnamomum cassia, it is one of the most forceful oils in the spice category, it’s intensely warming, immediately dominant, and built for use in very small amounts as a commanding accent rather than a primary note. 

Experienced makers know it well: a single drop in the right place can define an entire seasonal blend. Used with respect and restraint, it adds a dramatic heat to holiday candles, festive diffuser recipes, and home fragrance products that is difficult to achieve any other way. This is an oil for intentional use, not casual blending.

How to use

Use with significant restraint in all applications. Cinnamon Cassia is one of the strongest and most potent essential oils available, with a heat that builds quickly in diffuser blends. Even a single drop in a diffuser recipe can dominate the entire aromatic profile.

Best reserved for accent use in holiday, seasonal, and festive blends rather than everyday diffusion. Popular in small amounts within candle fragrance blends, wax melts, and holiday room sprays where its powerful spice adds atmosphere.

Frequently used in potpourri, simmer pot recipes, and home fragrance products for dramatic warmth. Can be included in very small trace amounts in warming body blends and massage oils, but must be heavily diluted to well below standard usage rates due to its high sensitization potential.

Often used in natural household cleaning formulas for its bold, commanding scent. Not recommended for frequent or prolonged topical use.

Always conduct a patch test and consult dilution guidelines carefully before any skin application.

Caution

Skin sensitivity may occur. Essential oils are highly concentrated and should be diluted before applying directly to the skin. Keep out of reach from children. If pregnant or breastfeeding please ask your doctor before use.
