Thuja
Thuja, Tetraclinis
The name thuja covers several conifers of the cypress family. The leaves of the North American thuja yield a fresh, camphor-like essential oil; the sandarac tree of North Africa provides a highly fragrant wood that the craftsmen of Essaouira use for marquetry. In perfumery, it brings a woody, green, slightly smoky note.
What it brings
A green, camphor-like wood, lightly smoky.
