Cinnamon Leaf, derived from the leaves of the Cinnamomum verum tree, known as 'True Cinnamon' or Ceylon Cinnamon, offers a milder, subtly sweet yet spicy aroma distinct from the cinnamon bark. Extracted primarily through steam distillation, cinnamon leaf oil provides a lighter, earthier tone, making it ideal for fragrances that require a hint of spice without the overpowering warmth of bark. Historically valued for its aromatic properties, cinnamon leaf is used in perfumery to add spicy complexity to oriental, woody, and spicy scents, often blended with floral and citrus notes.
Natural or Synthetic?
Cinnamon leaf oil is extracted naturally through steam distillation of the leaves of the Cinnamomum verum tree. This method is efficient and retains the authentic aroma of the leaves, making synthetic alternatives unnecessary.
