Photo Ceylon Cinnamon :: fragrance ingredients

Ceylon Cinnamon, known for its delicate and refined aroma, is a prized ingredient in the world of fragrances. Originating from Sri Lanka, formerly known as Ceylon, this variety of cinnamon is distinct from its more common counterpart, Cassia Cinnamon. It is celebrated for its sweet, warm, and woody scent with a slightly citrusy undertone. Ceylon Cinnamon has been used in perfumery for its rich aroma and has historical significance in various cultural practices. The process of extracting Ceylon Cinnamon's scent typically involves the distillation of the bark of the Cinnamomum verum tree. This method ensures that the essential oil retains its subtle and complex fragrance profile.
