Cedar wood is a well-known insect repellent, disorienting and disrupting body functions and insect pheromones. In 1960, cedarwood oil was registered with the E.P.A. as a pesticide. It has been used since Egyptian times. It is considered safe when used as directed, which is small amounts. 

In aromatherapy blends, the strong lasting odor marks it as a low note, added first to blends to hold the scent. 

It is also used to renew a cedar smell on cedarwood furniture. It has a balsam and camphor aroma, which is very strong. Please check with your healthcare before using.

Chemical constitutes of cedarwood are sesquiterpenes:  a-cedrene, thujone and cedrol. They are often described as balancing and grounding for emotions in aromatherapy.

Cedar blends well with Cypress and citrus essential oils in small amounts. One or 2 drops is sufficient. More may overwhelm a blend.
