Cedarwood (Cedrus atlantica) essential oil has a warm, woody, citrus scent. This oil supports a relaxing nighttime routine for restful sleep. It is referred to by our family as the “grandmother” of essential oils, as it serves as a reassuring presence in the home and works especially well with children. On top of these properties, Cedarwood is also infamous for its skin-soothing and breath-supporting qualities.
