Exhibits woodsy, herbaceous and medicinal aromas with citrus/floral back notes, and provides excellent relief from the congestion caused by colds, flu or allergies. Slightly less harsh than eucalyptus globulus, and the preferred variety for vapor inhalation. Can be rubbed into sore joints and muscles as a warming analgesic, and has strong antiseptic properties for use on all manner of skin ailments including burns, mosquito bites or skin infections.
