Kanuka is the quieter of New Zealand's two great aromatic natives, softer and less medicinal than manuka, with a clean herbaceous smell and a hint of the coast about it.
Kunzea ericoides, steam distilled from wild crafted leaves. Wild crafted means harvested from plants growing where they chose to grow, not farmed, which is how most New Zealand kanuka still comes to market.
It is a middle note and it blends unusually well, which is why Dolphin Clinic put it in the Sports Massage oil.
Dilute it well for skin work.
