Cassia Essential Oil, a close relative of cinnamon, carries a strong, spicy aroma that can transform any blend when used in small amounts. With a history spanning thousands of years, Cassia has long been valued for its distinctive fragrance and wellness benefits. It is even mentioned in the Old Testament for its warm, inviting scent and calming properties. Preclinical research suggests that cinnamaldehyde, its main component, may support immune health, digestion, metabolism, and cardiovascular function, though further clinical studies are needed.†

Cassia’s warming nature makes it a perfect oil to diffuse during the colder months. Because it can be strong on the skin, it should always be diluted with a carrier oil before topical use. When properly diluted, Cassia can help soothe the skin and provides a comforting aromatic experience. In the kitchen, it can be used as a substitute for cinnamon in baked goods or enjoyed on its own in a variety of entrées and desserts.
