Eucalyptus Essential Oil 80/85
Details
There are over 600 different species of which 500 produce oil, but the oil primarily comes from only 25 species. The trees were introduced to Europe at the end of the 16th century. Wherever they were planted, they inhibited other plant growth because the tree seems to secrete a chemical poison. Koala bears feed exclusively on eucalyptus leaves. The 80/85 means that the oil has been rectified so that the cineole (also called eucalptol) is increased from the crude up to 78% and rectified up to 85%. This increases the scent. Eucalyptus comes from the Greek eucalyptos meaning "well-covered". This refers to the tree when it flowers, as the flower buds are covered with a cup-like membrane which is thrown off when the flower expands. Australia does not produce this oil for exportation.
