Cinnamon Bark Oil is distilled from the Bark, while Cinnamon Leaf, of course, comes from the leaf of the tree. This makes Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil the more powerful of the two.

In this article, we will take a look at Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil benefits and uses, how its components break down, and how best to use it in a diffuser.

Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil Benefits: Component Breakdown

• Cinnamaldehyde: Cinnamaldehyde is the constituent that gives Cinnamon its trademark flavor and aroma. As you might guess, it is a very common flavoring additive in many different foods and beverages. You will also find Cinnamaldehyde in perfume, to compliment sweet or fruity fragrances. It is also a natural insecticide, proven to be very effective at killing mosquito larvae. It plays a significant role in Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil benefits.
• B-Caryophyllene: This terpenoid is unique as it is the only one that activates cannabinoid receptors without acting as a psychoactive. Caryophyllene occurs naturally in many different plants and herbs and is one of the components that gives Black Pepper its spicy aroma.
• Linalool: Common to many flowers and spices, linalool is a terpene alcohol with an aromatic floral odor. It contains antifungal properties and you will find it in over 60% of scented cleaning and hygiene products. Many Cinnamon Bark Essential Oil benefits are acquired with this component.
• Eugenol: Eugenol is a naturally occurring, aromatic liquid. It is common in many spices, including Cinnamon, Clove, Basil, and Nutmeg. Its scent is reminiscent of Clove, and you can find it in use as a flavoring agent, perfume agent, and even as a local anesthetic. 
• p-Cymene: Cymene is an organic plant compound that plays a role as a metabolite. It is classified as a monoterpene and is common to Thyme and Cumin as well as other spices. 
• (E)-Cinnamyl Acetate: An acetate ester and one of the derivatives of Cinnamaldehyde. Cinnamyl offers a sweet, fruity aroma, and you will find it in use as a fragrance and flavoring agent.

Precautions

Cinnamon Bark Oil is extremely powerful and should never be ingested. Additionally, we recommend that if you wish to use Cinnamon Oil for topical use (such as in a warming massage oil) you choose Cinnamon Leaf over Cinnamon Bark, as it is milder. Cinnamon Bark is considered to be a “hot oil” meaning it can easily cause skin irritations. No matter how you choose to use it, ensure you are following proper dilution recommendations. You should also keep Cinnamon Bark Oil away from pets and small children, and those who are pregnant or have underlying conditions should always consult with a health professional before undergoing essential oil therapy.
