This eucalyptus (E. radiata), also known as narrow-leaved peppermint eucalyptus, is indigenous to the mountainous regions of southeastern Australia, growing at altitudes of 250–1,200 meters above sea level. Eucalyptus radiata thrives in a temperate climate and requires a high level of humidity to develop its chemical compounds, eucalyptol, alpha-terpineol and limonene, which create a pleasant, fresh, fruity aroma. Throughout the year, fresh leaves and young green twigs are sustainably hand-harvested from wild-growing trees and plantations and steam distilled in a local distillery to create this essential oil.

The manufacturer of this special essential oil has been working with indigenous Australian plants for over 30 years. Since the early 1990s he has been committed to landscape conservation and the sustainable and prudent use of native plants, and since 2012, he has been selling exclusively indigenous essential oils and hydrosols from both his own production and from that of his collaborators throughout Australia. The indigenous plants used in the production of his essential oils and hydrosols are either wildcrafted or sustainably cultivated.

Eucalyptus is an ancient plant from the days of Gondwana; the oldest known eucalyptus fossils, found in Patagonia, show evidence of flowers, fruits and leaves that date back 52 million years. Many primordial plant species were preserved on the Australian continent after its isolation, most notably the eucalyptus; of the approximately 900 species of Eucatyptus, about 95% are native to Australia. Eucalyptus radiata, also known as Narrow-leaved Peppermint Eucalyptus, belongs to the Myrtle family (Myrtaceae) and is native to southeastern Australia. The evergreen tree can grow up to 50 metres tall and has long, lanceolate greyish-green leaves; in spring and early summer it also bears creamy-white flowers, which develop into small woody seed pods. Traditionally, the aromatic leaves and bark were used by the indigenous people of Australia, both for everyday use and ceremonial purposes.

The fruity, fresh aroma invigorates, refreshes and opens up the lungs to allow deep breathing. This aromatic fragrance has a warming, restorative, cleansing effect and enhances concentration.
