Bask in the feeling of purification it brings to bathing and diffusing. Inhale this scent trail and be transported to a Japanese hillside hot-spring nestled amongst cypress forests. Hinoki Cypress Essential Oil is a coniferous cologne that is purposely purifying and silently sanctifying. Friendly and fortifying to use by anointing drops in diffusers, baths, blends, and massages as you soak it in and allow this tonic to temper your body's temple.

This conifer's light pinkish-brown wood has a lovely lemon scent and is rot and insect resistant. In Japan, the resilient timber is reserved for building temples, shrines, traditional Noh theatres, ritual baths, and table tennis paddles.

The Hinoki Cypress is one of the main tree species studied in scientific papers on Japanese forest bathing (shinrin-yoku). By spending time in deep, evergreen forests, forest bathing harnesses the aromatic molecules of trees to harmonize our health. The scent molecules of trees, called phytoncides, are volatile organic compounds that refresh, relax, and slow down our minds and souls so we can calm down and concentrate.

Forest bathe at home by diffusing Hinoki Cypress Essential Oil into the air via diffuser, salt pipe, and steam baths.

The poets would find this is nonsense. It's not just the smell of a cypress, or the sound of the birds, or the color green that unlocks the pathway to health in our brains. We're full sensory beings, or at least we were once built to be. Isn't it possible that it's only when you open all the doors - literally and figuratively - that the real magic happens?"
