Product Overview

Eucalyptus Essential Oil—revered across India as Nilgiri Tel—is a crisp, intensely penetrating, camphoraceous-herbal essential oil steam-distilled from the mature foliage and terminal twigs of Eucalyptus globulus. Standardized to high 1,8-cineole (eucalyptol) content (typically 80%–85%+), it delivers a clean, cooling, medicinal-fresh top note layered with bright herbal-terpenic lift, subtle minty-balsamic nuances, and dry woody undertones. Indispensable in pharmaceutical balms, respiratory care, oral hygiene, functional perfumery, artisanal soaps, and aromatherapy, it imparts immediate clearing freshness and crisp aromatic diffusion.
