Distilled from the fresh leaves and Twigs of the plant, niaouli essential oil is ideal in winter for inhalation and skin massage, diluted in vegetable oil. Rich in eucalyptol, its virtues are similar to those of globular eucalyptus.
Niaouli oil is a member of the Myrtaceae family. This oil has a sweet, fresh, camphoraceous aroma and is classed as a middle note. Niaouli blends well with camphoraceous, citrus and woodsy oils.
Niaouli has similar benefits but is a more gentle version of Tea Tree. It is packed full of antibacterial properties and can work as a decongestant, expectorant and anti-microbial.
