DESCRIPTION
There is no mistaking camphor. It is cold, sharp and medicinal in the way a menthol rub is medicinal, and it clears a stuffy room faster than almost anything else on the shelf.
Steam distilled from the wood of Cinnamomum camphora in China, white camphor is the fraction used in aromatherapy. It is a top note and a strong one, which is why it turns up in small quantities in decongestant blends rather than on its own.
Two or three drops in a vaporiser is enough. Dilute it well for anything topical.
Dolphin Clinic began as an aromatherapy treatment clinic more than thirty years ago, and the oils they sell now are the ones their therapists used then.
