Description

bot. Ravensara aromatica s. Agathophyllum aromatica

Ravensara oil has a light, mild, camphoraceous odour, lighter and more delicate than eucalyptus due to the absence of pungent cineole, due to the mono terpenes camphene, pinene and cadinene. The aroma of Ravensaras depends on limonene, linalool and other pleasant-smelling aliphatic terpenes.

Please note: do not confuse the ea of aromatic ravensara with the ea of camphor cinnamon, which is sometimes referred to empirically as ravintsara. They are two different plants and their essential oils are different.

Usage

Air purification and respiration. Ravensara essential oil is very good to use in vaporisers, humidifiers, aroma lamps, or if you don't have any, just sprinkle it on cotton wool and place it in several places in your apartment on warm radiators. Bedrooms, children's rooms and common areas are particularly good for conditioning the air. It can be added to water when washing floors etc.

If you need to feel the ravensara closer, put a few drops on your clothes, a child's scarf, the corner of a pillow or on a napkin by the bed.

Scented baths. Lie in a bath of warm water with a few drops of ravensara essential oil. Caution: the oil does not dissolve in water, so it should be added to a tablespoon of milk or common salt before pouring it into the bath. An even quicker and more effective way is to breathe 3-5 drops of ravensara essential oil into hot water while bending over a steaming bowl for 10 minutes.

Massage. Add 3-4 drops each of ravensara and radial eucalyptus ea to any base/massage oil and massage the back, chest, legs and arms.
