The strong smoky and woody scent of pure cade oil might repel a few noses, but when expertly dosed it can actually give perfumes great depth. Moreover, its potent anti-inflammatory and antimicrobial properties have made it a recognised remedy to treat dandruff and soothe many kinds of skin conditions such as eczema and psoriasis.

Juniper is a plant genus of the cypress family. Of this genus, two shrubs have become popular in&nbsp;cosmetics and perfumery: the&nbsp;<i>Juniperus communis</i>, whose berries are distilled for their&nbsp;<a href="https://lush.com/uk/en/i/juniperberry-oil">essential oil</a>, and the&nbsp;<i>Juniperus oxycedrus</i>&nbsp;from which cade oil (also called juniper tar) is extracted.

Cade oil is produced by distillation of the wood. The resulting paste is left to sit for 15-20 days, after which it will have separated into three layers - a bottom layer of tar-like substance, an aqueous layer and an upper layer of essential oil, which we use.
