Description

Tea Tree Oil is a fresh and distinctive natural essential oil known for its herbal, green, camphoraceous and slightly woody character. It provides a clean botanical impression and is widely used in perfumery to add freshness and aromatic complexity.

Its aroma combines fresh herbal, green, camphoraceous, slightly medicinal and woody facets. The character can be quite recognizable, making it particularly useful when a composition calls for a natural aromatic or green accent.

Tea Tree Oil works especially well in fresh, herbal, green, aromatic, woody and fougère fragrances. It can add a crisp botanical quality to citrus openings and create an interesting contrast with floral and woody materials.

Perfumers' Tip

Tea Tree Oil is useful for adding a fresh, green and distinctly herbal character. Combine it with Lemon, Bergamot and Lavender for a clean aromatic opening, or pair it with Rosemary, Thyme and Eucalyptus for a stronger botanical profile.

For a fresh woody composition, try Tea Tree Oil + Juniper Berry + Cedarwood + Vetiver + Ambroxan. Geranium and Rose can soften its sharper facets, while Olibanum Oil can introduce a subtle resinous dimension.

Because Tea Tree Oil has a recognizable herbal and camphoraceous character, start at low levels and evaluate carefully before increasing the dosage.
