Description
White Camphor oil has a herbaceous, fresh, minty, and somewhat medicinal aroma that blends well with Rosemary and Eucalyptus. The penetrating aroma of Camphor is believed to be beneficial for respiratory relief and soothing inflammation. White Camphor oil particularly is highly recommended by aromatherapists as it is thought to have relaxing, anti-bacterial, and anti-fungal properties.
