An essential oil, distilled exclusively from Cypress Fruits has also been available.
Cypress Oil is a pale Yellow, Pale olive greenish or almost colorless, mobile liquid of sweet balsamic, yet refreshing odor, reminiscent of pine needles oil, templin oil, juniper berry oil, cardamom oil and with a unique dryout of delicate and tenacious sweetness.
