Description of cinnamon oil
The history of the interaction of mankind with cinnamon goes back more than one thousand years. The first mention of it is in the works of Chinese doctors, for 2700 BC. e. And contemporaries of Herodotus and Cleopatra already mention cinnamon as a well-known, albeit incredibly expensive spice that they deliver to Ancient Egypt and Greece directly from the Middle Kingdom.
The cinnamon essential oil was born much later when people learned to extract fragrant liquid from the bark and leaves of the same tree, as well as its closest cinnamon relatives, who grow in India, Sri Lanka, and Seychelles. Fortunately, by that time the Portuguese sailors discover these countries, and spice fell in price. Now the unique properties provided it with a direct path to cosmetology.
