From the Forests of Madagascar

A leaf the locals call "the good leaf."

- Native to the rainforests of Madagascar, where Ravensara aromatica grows as a tall evergreen tree among endemic flora.

- The Malagasy name "ravintsara" translates loosely to "good leaf," reflecting generations of traditional use.

- Steam-distilled from the leaves, producing a fresh, green, slightly anisic oil distinct from its cousin Ravintsara (Cinnamomum camphora).

SAFETY

Dillution guideline

  • Use at 1–3% dilution in a carrier oil such as jojoba or argan for topical application on adults.

  • Patch test

Always patch test: apply a small amount of the diluted blend to the inner forearm and wait 24 hours before broader use.

  • Children

Avoid use on children under 6. For ages 6+, use at lower dilutions (0.5–1%) and never apply near the face.

  • Pregnancy

Avoid during pregnancy and breastfeeding unless guided by a qualified aromatherapist.

  • Pets

Keep away from cats, dogs, and birds; diffuse only in well-ventilated rooms with an exit route for animals.

Not typically associated with photosensitivity.

  • Ingestion

Do not ingest unless under the guidance of a qualified healthcare professional.

  • Storage

Store tightly closed in a cool, dark place away from sunlight and heat. Keep out of reach of children.
