Eucalyptus essential oil is fresh and unmistakable – cool, green and camphor-bright. It is the scent most people associate with a spa, a steam room or a freshly cleaned space.
What eucalyptus smells like
Sharp, clean and cooling, with a camphoraceous, slightly medicinal freshness and a green undertone. It is crisp and penetrating – the smell of cool, clear air.
Simple ways to use it
- Diffuse it for a fresh, clean room scent – 3 to 5 drops.
- Add a drop to a bowl of hot water for a simple scented steam (eyes closed, kept at a safe distance).
- Use it in a surface spray for a clean, fresh scent.
Eucalyptus is strong. Keep it well away from young children and pets, use it sparingly, dilute properly for skin, and avoid the eyes.
What eucalyptus pairs with
- With peppermint for a cool, sharp, spa-fresh blend.
- With lemon for a clean, bright lift.
- With pine for a fresh, forest-clean scent.
