Cedarwood Atlas essential oil. This is a true cedar from the family Pinaceae, also known as Atlantic cedar and Moroccan cedarwood.
This oil is quite different from Virginian cedarwood. Its sweet, woody aroma improves as the oil ages, its aroma is also sharper than Virginian. Please do not smell directly from the bottle, use a perfume tester. Below is what others have said or written about this oil.
This oil may aid in the removal of body fat and is used externally for cellulite and the retention of fluid in the tissue. The oil is also used for the respiratory system, a drop in a half cup of water to gargle for sore throat or with a few drops of Eucalyptus in a steaming bowl of water to reduce nasal and lung congestion. Its main benefits are on the respiratory system due to its expectorant properties, easing conditions such as bronchitis, coughs and colds.
Its antiseptic properties make it an ideal remedy for bladder and kidney infections and for cystitis. The oil may be added to a sitz bath and applied in compresses. It has been added to shampoos or facial washes to reduce oily secretions. The oil may help to clear chronic conditions such as dermatitis and psoriasis. It would make a good hair tonic and effective for treating seborrhoea of the scalp, dandruff and alopecia. This oil is also used as a fixative in the perfume industry.
Cedarwood Atlas is calming and soothing with sedative effects similar to Sandalwood. This oil should not be used on children, pregnant women and the elderly or infirm. Blends well with bergamot, clary sage, frankincense, oakmoss and rosemary. Its color ranges from pale yellow to amber, color will vary from batch to batch. Flash point: 200F.

I bought this because I found so many online recipes that used this Cedar, rather than others. In fact, i haven't found recipe blends that used other Cedars. ANyway, this isn't as deeply cedar or woody as I would like, but it is still pretty good and reliable. One of my favorite blends is this with Sweet Orange and Patchouli. Blends well with Lavender too.

Smells more sweet and green than the "Virginia" variety, but is still an interesting oil.

I like the smell of Atlas Cedarwood much more than the Virginia Cedarwood. It has a unique woody scent that I can't put my finger on. I used it in a blend with spruce, pine needle and fir needle with a little vetiver in a cp soap and it smells fantastic.

I wasn't too sure about this at first but I love this product. It can be blended with rosemary and lavender very nicely. Thanks Camden!

I bought the cedarwood to use in a blend for my dad, and it has turned out to be one that I love. It has a great soothing woodsy smell. Very soft and relaxing.

Loveee the woodsy earthy smell of this oil. I massaged a little on my scalp and it allowed me to relax and it produced a nice soothing feeling. Was afraid at first that the scent would not be feminine enough but when added to my oil blend it proved me wrong. Of course it is a nice quality as is the Camden Grey way.

Woodsy essential oils just works for me! Love the smell of this! Can't even begin to tell about the benefits this does for me.
Great for colds, hair & scalp, skin! By the way this is good for oily and dry skin. The price you CAN NOT beat!! Will always be in my collection! Look forward to using this in a lot more things! Thank you Camden Grey!

I use this in my sea clay body mask/scrub for detox and cellulite, as well as aftershave and colognes. I'm looking forward to incorporating in other blends as well since it rounds out a woodsy, earthy blend with such unmatched grace. A true surprise since, when I first took in its aroma, I was unsure what to do with it. It's another "best of both worlds" (meaning both scent and therapeutic value) in my book!
