BLEND IDEAS

The Paperbark Tree of the South Pacific

From New Caledonian forests to the world's apothecaries.

Niaouli is distilled from the leaves of the paperbark tree, native to New Caledonia and Australia and now also grown in Madagascar.

The oil became known in Europe as gomenol, named after the port of Gomen in New Caledonia from which it was once shipped.

Its distinctive soft, sweet freshness sets it apart from the sharper eucalyptus and tea tree oils of the same botanical family.

SAFETY

Dillution guideline

  • For skin use, dilute to 1-3% in a carrier oil such as jojoba or argan, and keep well away from the face.

  • Patch test

Apply a small diluted amount to the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before wider use.

  • Children

IMPORTANT: this oil is rich in 1,8-cineole. Do not apply to or near the face, nose or chest of infants and young children, and avoid diffusing around them in enclosed spaces, as cineole-rich oils can cause breathing difficulties in the very young. Keep out of reach of children and consult a qualified aromatherapist before any use with children.

  • Pregnancy

If pregnant or nursing, consult a healthcare professional before use.

  • Pets

Keep away from pets; cineole-rich oils are of particular concern for cats and small animals. Diffuse only in well-ventilated spaces and never apply to animals.

  • Photosensitivity

Not typically associated with photosensitivity.

  • Ingestion

Do not ingest unless under qualified professional guidance.

  • Storage

Store tightly closed in a cool, dark place away from heat and light; minimise air exposure, as the limonene and pinene fractions oxidise over time.

Niaouli

Similar to tea tree oil, also suitable as a repellent. A good scent for the respiratory tract.
