Hinoki essential oil, extracted from Japanese cypress, is prized for its beneficial properties. In aromatherapy, it soothes, relaxes, reduces stress and promotes good sleep. Diluted in vegetable oil and applied locally, it relieves muscle tension and stimulates blood circulation. Its unique woody fragrance perfumes spaces, creating a Zen atmosphere conducive to relaxation. It is essential to take precautions, such as testing on the skin before use and avoiding use by pregnant or breastfeeding women or young children without medical advice. Highly prized in niche perfumery, woody, moist, evoking Japanese wooden baths (ofuro), with a resinous and slightly smoky dimension.
