## About this item

Cypress essential oil is taken from the needles and twigs of young branches of the Mediterranean cypress, the trees made famous by Van Gogh's paintings. This 50 ml oil suits ritual makers and home fragrance fans who like to work with plant oils.

Cupressus sempervirens is the Latin name, and the oil is extracted by steam distillation. Use it in a vaporiser. It is for fragrance and ritual use only, never to eat, drink or put on skin, so it sits well among your altar supplies.

Greek mythology sees the cypress as a mourning tree, often grown in cemeteries, and links it with Hades, god of the underworld. Its botanical name includes sempervirens, which means 'live forever'. It is a good choice for anyone who likes to know the old stories behind the plants on their altar.
