Couldn't load pickup availability
Cassia Essential Oil is a warm, rich, and aromatic essential oil steam-distilled from the bark of Cinnamomum cassia, a cinnamon species known for its naturally sweet, spicy, and invigorating aroma. Its bold fragrance features characteristic cinnamon notes with a warm, slightly woody and subtly sweet undertone, making it a popular choice for aromatic, cosmetic, and personal-care applications.
Aromatic Profile
Cassia Essential Oil has a powerful, warm, spicy, and sweet aroma reminiscent of freshly ground cinnamon. Its intense fragrance can add depth and warmth to essential oil blends, seasonal aromatherapy compositions, candles, soaps, and other aromatic products.
Blending Suggestions
Cassia pairs particularly well with citrus, woody, herbal, and spicy essential oils. It can complement oils such as orange, sweet orange, clove, ginger, cardamom, cedarwood, frankincense, and other cinnamon-family aromas.
Because Cassia Essential Oil has a strong and concentrated aroma, a small amount can significantly influence a blend.
Important: Cassia essential oil is very potent and can be irritating or sensitizing to the skin. For topical and cosmetic applications, use only at appropriate low dilution levels and follow current essential-oil safety guidelines.

Formulation Guidance:
Measure by weight for reproducibility. Confirm compatibility with the chosen oil, alcohol, or emulsion base; do not assume complete solubility in every system. Essential oils do not dissolve directly in water, so water-based formulations require a suitable solubilization or emulsification system.
Important Safety Information
Cassia Essential Oil is highly concentrated and should be used with care. It should always be properly diluted before topical application and is generally best used in very low concentrations. Avoid applying undiluted oil directly to the skin, eyes, or sensitive areas. Cassia may cause skin irritation or sensitization, particularly when used at excessive concentrations.
Keep out of reach of children and pets. Store tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. If pregnant, nursing, taking medication, or under medical care, consult a qualified healthcare professional before use.
For external and aromatic use only. Do not ingest unless specifically directed by a qualified healthcare professional.
