Cayeput oil is obtained by distilling the leaves (and sometimes twigs) of trees of the genus Myrtaceae (Melaleuca leucadendra and, less commonly, Melaleuca cajuputi). The name seems quite exotic and simply refers to the light-colored wood of the raw material. The oil has an intense and very complex smell. You will easily feel many aromas, from fresh and fruity notes to camphor, rosemary or cardamom. However, a beautiful smell is not everything, it is worth paying attention to extraordinary properties.
