What's included in the package?
Cinnamon: The sweet, spicy aroma of cinnamon is popular worldwide. It is extracted from a tropical, evergreen tree that can grow up to 14 meters tall, and its bark, leaves, and flowers have a very high fragrance content. Although cinnamon primarily has a long history of culinary uses, the essential oil extracted from it actually offers surprisingly versatile applications. Cinnamon is often used to flavor mouthwashes and chewing gums.
Clove: The beneficial properties and uses of clove date back to ancient Chinese and Indian cultures. As a food flavoring, it adds a distinctive spicy taste to any dish or dessert. Clove is also widely used in dental preparations, sweets, and chewing gums due to its flavor.
Eucalyptus: Oil extracted from the leaf/stem of Eucalyptus radiata, oil extracted from the leaf of Eucalyptus polybractea, oil extracted from the leaf of Eucalyptus kochii, oil extracted from the leaf of Eucalyptus loxophleba, oil extracted from the leaf of Eucalyptus globulus
Often referred to as the gum tree, eucalyptus is an evergreen tree species that can reach a height of 15 meters. The primary chemical components of eucalyptus are eucalyptol and alpha-terpineol, which greatly contribute to a soothing massage experience. Eucalyptus essential oil has a relaxing and tension-relieving effect and offers beneficial properties for the skin.
Rosemary: Rosemary is an aromatic, evergreen shrub whose leaves are widely used to flavor dishes such as stuffings, pork, lamb roasts, chicken, or turkey. In ancient Greek, Roman, Egyptian, and Hebrew cultures, highly prized rosemary was revered as a sacred plant. Due to its herbal and energizing scent, rosemary essential oil is also frequently used for aromatherapy and massage therapy purposes.
Wild Orange: Cold-pressed from the rind, wild orange essential oil is one of dōTERRA's best-selling essential oils due to its energizing aroma and numerous beneficial effects. Rich in monoterpenes, wild orange essential oil soothes the skin, making it a pleasant addition to various beauty products.

Cinnamon: (Cinnamomum zeylanicum) the bark of the cinnamon tree is harvested year-round after the bark reaches three years of age. The tree is then cut to separate the bark from the trunk and thicker branches. The bark then regrows, and when it reaches the appropriate size, it is harvested again. After the bark is peeled off the tree, it is dried in the sun, and then the essential oil is extracted by steam distillation.
Clove: (Eugenia caryophyllata) the clove tree is originally from Southeast Asia. A clove tree takes about three years to become fertile but can live for over 100 years. The essential oil is extracted from the flower buds growing on the trees. Just before the buds open, their color changes to bright red, indicating they are ready for harvest.
