Our Range of

Australian Essential Oils

	1. Callitris intratropica (Australian Blue Cypress) The jewel in our Australian essential oils crown. This wood oil contains guaiol, guaienes selinenes, guaiazulene, eudesmols and furanones. It is at present registered as a cosmetic excipient for fragrancing, although we have good reasons to believe that it has significant therapeutic potential as an antiphlogistic and antiviral. It is an excellent fixative and base note in perfumery applications, and adds a subtle woody note to fragrances. Availability: We are matching anticipated demand with our available production capacity. The monsoon season from November to April restricts production, but good stocks are held.

	2. Backhousia citriodora: (Lemon Myrtle Oil) Well-known in Australian cuisine circles for its fine rounded lemon notes, reminiscent of the genuine Melissa oils which are so rarely found. A superb oil, now under plantation cultivation, as it is a relatively uncommon semi-rainforest dweller in its natural state. A fine oil in its own right, and an excellent oil for blending with other native Australian essential oils to give them an exquisite "lift". Availability: Restricted in quantity until more plantations come on line. Data Sheets available, please contact us: Material Safety Data Sheet Physico-chemical Specification Sheet
	3. Eucalyptus radiata (Australian Eucalyptus radiata) Generally regarded as the finest of the therapeutic cineole-type Eucalyptus oils, and can safely be used as-distilled, in its natural state. Many other Eucalyptus oils are re-distilled to bring them to an acceptable standard. This oil is characterised by its crisp, clean cineole aroma lifted by citrus/floral backnotes.   Availability: Year-round Data Sheets available, please contact us: Material Safety Data Sheet Physico-chemical Specification Sheet Background Data Sheet
	4. Melaleuca alternifolia (Tea Tree Oil) Our message is simple. We present a single-distilled oil of spicy character, with the attributes of a fine chemical: very consistent physical and chemical characteristics from batch to batch. We do not oxygenate or irradiate the oil as is sometimes done. There is no need: the aroma and physical characteristics are as nature intended, and careful distillation and processing maintains these qualities. We sell in different categories, which we believe are well-matched to the broad range of uses to which Tea Tree Oil is put, and these categories are very competitively priced.  Availability: Year-round, in large quantities, in all categories.  Data Sheets available, please contact us: Material Safety Data Sheet Physico-chemical Specification Sheet Toxicological Data Sheet Background Data Sheet
	5. Melablend** ("Soft-Scent’ Tea Tree Oil) One of our newest and most promising additions to our range. The aroma of pure Tea Tree Oil is transformed by the inclusion of Nerolina™, giving the blend a pleasant lilac/floral overtone, which many people tell us they prefer. In addition, testing is at present being conducted to investigate the apparent improvement of the Melaleuca Softscent over 100% Oil of Melaleuca alternifolia against gram negative bacteria and other organisms. Melaleuca Softscent is produced from selected Premium or Standard category Tea Tree Oil, with the addition of the specific Melaleuca chemotype. Availability: All year round, in quantities up to 500 kgs per shipment
	6. Melaleuca ericifolia (Lavender Tea Tree, or Australian Rosalina Oil) One of the most fragrant of the Melaleuca oils; very variable in analysis from different locations. Again, it took a great deal of time to identify areas which could be sustainably harvested, and which give a good balance of aromatic components to achieve a pleasant camphoraceous/floral aroma, with rosy backnotes. Availability: Limited, harvested between May and October; please allow 4 weeks for delivery.  Data Sheets available, please contact us: Material Safety Data Sheet Physico-chemical Specification Sheet
	7. Melaleuca quinquenervia - chemotype C (Niaouli) Niaouli has been sourced from various countries for a number of years, with many importers complaining of wide variations in quality. In our opinion, most of the problems arise because of the incredible variation in chemical constituent ratios in the oils from different provenances of the various species of Melaleuca, and indeed all Myrtaceæ species. After some years of investigation, we have secured a reliable supply of Niaouli here in Australia, which has a particularly clean and fruity aroma, and consistent analysis. Availability: Year-round.

	8. Melaleuca quinquenervia - chemotype LN (Australian Nerolina™ Oil) This particular chemotype has around 50/50 linalool and nerolidol,giving an oil with very distinctive lavender and lilac notes. While this oil can be highly variable in analysis, we have expended a great deal of time and effort to ensure a reliable supply of consistent character. Availability: Limited through the cooler months, June to October. Please allow 4 weeks for delivery in these months.
