It forms part of the E.O.B.B.D. selection from Esential’Arôms, in which the exact botanical species, producing organ and biochemical specificity of the essential oil are identified. In this case, its profile is defined by 1,8-cineole, alpha-terpinyl acetate and sabinene, responsible for its spicy, fresh and distinctive aromatic character.
