History:This Cedarwood originates in the Atlas Mountains of North Africa. In former times, linen chests were frequently crafted from this wood to keep moths out. To date, clothes hangers are frequently crafted from this wood for the same reason. The ancient Egyptians used this oil in various ways, namely to embalm the deceased, for cosmetics and for perfumery. A popular incense ingredient still commonly burned in Tibetan temples (see Aromaland's Himalayan Cedarwood).

Specific Safety Information:Non-toxic, non-irritant. Avoid during pregnancy.
