Description
Organic Cinnamon bark essential Oil, origin Madagascar
Our organic cinnamon essential oil (bark, Cinnamomum verum syn. Cinnamomum zeylanicum) is distilled from carefully selected bark in Madagascar. Its warm, spicy, and sweet profile (rich in cinnamaldehyde) makes it a premium ingredient in perfumery, fragrant cosmetics and controlled aromatherapy. Quality and traceability are verified for each batch.
Note: For technical reasons, the vial used for the 1mL packaging has a capacity of approximately 4mL, so it is normal for it to appear about one-quarter full. The packaging is carried out using precise and calibrated laboratory equipment.

Production
Harvest
Cinnamomum verum, Ceylon cinnamon
The cinnamon tree is native to the island of Ceylon (Sri Lanka). Its cultivation spread throughout the Indian Ocean as early as the 19th century, and Madagascar is now among the key origins for this prized spice. Our raw material is Cinnamomum verum, also known as Cinnamomum zeylanicum: two names for the same species, traditionally called “Ceylon cinnamon.”
Harvesting focuses on the inner bark of young shoots: after scoring, the bark is rolled into sticks (called “quills” in English), then dried and graded according to fineness and aroma. Milder and more refined than cassia-type cinnamons, this bark is particularly sought after for distilling cinnamon bark essential oil.
Manufacturing
Distillation of selected bark, near the plantations
For our organic cinnamon essential oil, we work with a long-standing partner located in Madagascar, as close as possible to the plantations. The controlled, reproducible process follows the steps below:
-
Selection of bark lots (quills).
-
Sorting and controlled drying of the bark.
-
Steam distillation with duration adjusted to optimize cinnamaldehyde content.
-
Separation/decantation of the oil phase, fine filtration.
-
Analytical controls (chromatographic profile, density, refractive index) and batch-level traceability.
This bark-specific protocol (as opposed to leaf) gives the oil its characteristic spicy intensity and warmth.

Application
Main areas of application :
Cosmetic Perfumery Aromatherapy - Parapharmacy Flavor - Food Veterinary Household Spa - Well-being
Perfumery
Warm, sweet, and balsamic spice: the backbone of Orientals
Cinnamon bark essential oil brings a warm/spicy top and a sweet balsamic heart, evolving toward a vanilla-woody base. It is a pillar of the following families:
-
Oriental / ambery: with benzoin, labdanum, opoponax, vanilla, tonka bean.
-
Gourmand: pastry accords (praline, gingerbread); superb with sweet orange and mandarin.
-
Woody / leathery: interesting with cedar, patchouli, vetiver, birch.
Cosmetics
Warm & spicy fragrance, at very low dosage
In cosmetics, cinnamon bark essential oil is used as a fragrance at very low levels, preferably in rinse-off formulas (shower gels, perfumed soaps) or home-fragrance products. For leave-on applications, caution is essential (irritation risk):
-
Shower gels and soaps: impart a warm, comforting trail.
-
Fabric mists or home sprays.
-
Scented candles: a festive note, to pair with citrus and resins.
Veterinary
In a veterinary context, cinnamon essential oil should be considered only for ambient or hygiene uses:
-
Always highly diluted and never applied to the animal.
-
Prefer validated professional formulations (material compatibility, ventilation).
-
Avoid exposing cats and sensitive exotic pets; do not diffuse in the presence of confined animals.
-
For trained users only, in compliance with regulatory frameworks.
Homecare - Household
Warm, festive ambiance, with controlled diffusion
Cinnamon is one of the olfactory icons of the festive season. In home care, it is used:
-
In atmospheric diffusion (very low dosages) to create a warm ambiance; pair with sweet orange and balsam fir.
-
In room sprays or fragranced cleaning solutions (surface compatibility tested).
-
In homemade candles: adds a spicy heart alongside citrus notes.
Always follow the dosage and directions for use, and air out rooms after use.
Food - Flavor
Cinnamon essential oil has a warm, spicy flavor, and can be used as an edible essential oil in cooking or in the creation of foodstuffs:
- Baked goods: Indispensable in gingerbread, apple pie and cinnamon rolls, it brings warmth and comfort.
- Hot drinks: Perfect for mulled wine, mulled cider or spiced teas, it adds spicy depth.
- Sauces: Ideal in sauces for simmered dishes, adding a warm, spicy note.
Aromatherapy :
Aromatic profile and main constituents
- Cinnamal (Cinnamaldehyde) (50.00 to 75.00%),
