Product Description
Introducing The Ingredients Store Manuka Essential Oil. The native Manuka plant is grown in New Zealand where the leaves & branches are harvested to produce a spicy yet sweet, herbaceous aromatic essential oil. Its fresh, clarifying character makes it popular in soap and cleansing formulations. The plant & oil have been used by the Maori for centuries for traditional & emollient purposes. It is a precious commodity in NZ and carries a wonderful scent.
INCI Listing: Leptospermum Scoparium Branch/Leaf Oil
Frequently asked questions
What is manuka essential oil?
It is the steam distilled oil of the leaves and branches of the New Zealand manuka shrub, Leptospermum scoparium (INCI: Leptospermum Scoparium Branch/Leaf Oil), the same plant bees visit for manuka honey. It is a relative of tea tree but has a quite different scent and character.
What does manuka oil smell like?
Warm, herbaceous and slightly spicy, with a sweet, honeyed, woody depth. It is softer and less sharp than tea tree, and blends well with lavender, cedarwood, frankincense, bergamot and rosemary.
Where does this manuka oil come from?
It comes from manuka of New Zealand origin, specifically the East Cape region of the North Island, the area most associated with premium manuka oil. It is also suitable as a food flavouring under EU 1334/2008.
What pack sizes and safety documents are available?
From 100 ml up to a 5 kg pack, all priced online. SDS, IFRA certificate, EU allergens declaration and typical GC are available; use the IFRA certificate to set the maximum level for each product category.
