Chinese cinnamon, Cinnamomum cassia, is an aromatic plant with a warm, sweet and spicy character. Its essential oil is obtained from the branches by steam distillation and forms part of the E.O.B.B.D. selection from Esential’Arôms, in which the exact botanical species, producing organ and biochemical specificity are identified. In this case, its profile is defined by cinnamaldehyde, cinnamyl acetate and benzaldehyde, responsible for its intense and characteristic aroma. Due to its high natural concentration, it must be handled with caution and used only in diluted cosmetic preparations.
