Overview of Camphor Oil

Camphor Oil, also referred to as Camphor Essential Oil, is a naturally derived aromatic oil obtained from the Cinnamomum camphora tree and identified with CAS 8008-51-3. It features an intense yet fresh, cooling fragrance.

It is widely used in cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, aromatherapy, and personal care formulations for its antiseptic, soothing, and stimulating properties. Known for its versatility and sensory freshness, Pure Camphor Oil is a staple in balms, hair tonics, massage oils, and bath blends, and also finds applications in pooja and home fragrance products.

Camphor oil is produced by steam distillation of wood, bark, or leaves of the camphor tree (Cinnamomum camphora).

Its major active components include camphor, borneol, cineole, and safrole, which contribute to its cooling sensation and medicinal aroma.

White Camphor Oil is the purest and most commonly used form for cosmetic and therapeutic formulations.
