Product Description
Virginian Cedarwood Essential Oil, also known as Red Cedarwood, is steam distilled from the wood and timber by-products of Juniperus virginiana, an evergreen tree native to eastern North America.
Despite its common name, Virginian Cedarwood is not a true cedar. It belongs to the Cupressaceae family, whereas species such as Atlas Cedarwood belong to the Pinaceae family.
The oil has a distinctive dry, woody and warm aroma and is widely used as a fragrance ingredient across personal care, cosmetic, home fragrance and household applications. Its rich woody character makes it particularly well suited to masculine, earthy and grounding fragrance profiles.

Frequently asked questions
What is Cedarwood Virginiana essential oil?
Also called Virginian or red cedarwood, it is steam distilled from the wood and twigs of the eastern red cedar, Juniperus virginiana (INCI: Juniperus Virginiana Wood Oil). It is 100% pure and of USA origin.
What does Virginian cedarwood smell like?
Soft, dry and woody with a clean pencil-shaving character, lighter and less resinous than Atlas cedarwood. It is a reliable, long-lasting base note for woody, masculine and fresh blends.
How does Virginiana differ from other cedarwood oils?
Virginiana and Mexicana (Texas-type) are both juniper woods, while Atlas and Himalayan come from true cedars (Cedrus). Virginiana is the classic dry, pencil-wood profile; the SDS, IFRA certificate, EU allergens declaration and typical GC are available.
