Ho Wood Essential Oil, derived from the Cinnamomum camphora tree, is harvested and processed primarily in China, where the tree thrives due to its favorable climate. The oil is extracted using steam distillation, typically from the branches, leaves, and sometimes the bark of the tree. This method is efficient for preserving the oil's high linalool content, which gives it its characteristic sweet, woody aroma reminiscent of rosewood.The oil's production gained prominence when it was identified as a sustainable alternative to Rosewood Essential Oil. The tree itself is a renewable source, often pruned rather than felled, which supports environmental conservation efforts. The distillation process involves collecting plant materials, steaming them to release volatile compounds, and condensing the steam to separate the essential oil. The resulting oil is pale yellow with a mild consistency.
