Buy Thuja Essential Oil

Thuja oil, also known as Arborvitae oil, is an essential oil extracted from the leaves and twigs of the Thuja occidentalis tree, commonly called the Northern White Cedar or American Arborvitae. This evergreen conifer is native to India and is widely recognized for its distinctive aromatic scent and its long history of traditional uses.

The extraction process of Thuja oil typically involves steam distillation. This method gently heats the plant material, releasing the volatile aromatic compounds that are then collected and condensed to form the essential oil. The resulting oil is a complex mixture of various chemical constituents, including monoterpenes like thujone, sabinene, and α-pinene, as well as sesquiterpenes such as cedrol. These compounds contribute to the characteristic aroma of Thuja oil, which is often described as woody, camphoraceous, and slightly resinous.
