Cinnamon
With its unmistakable spicy-sweet aroma, cinnamon essential oil offers more than just a comforting scent. Known for its warming properties, antimicrobial power, and mood-enhancing qualities, it’s a multitasking oil used in both traditional wellness and modern aromatherapy.
At Made in Hemp, we incorporate cinnamon essential oil into our hemp seed oil soap to invigorate your skin and senses — and you’ll soon find it in our essential oil diffuser blends and perfume rollers designed for warmth, clarity, and confidence.
What Is Cinnamon Essential Oil?
Cinnamon essential oil is extracted via steam distillation from either the bark or leaves of the cinnamon tree (Cinnamomum zeylanicum or Cinnamomum cassia). It’s packed with powerful plant compounds, including:
Cinnamaldehyde – warming, circulation-boosting, and antimicrobial
Eugenol – a natural anti-inflammatory
Linalool – calming and aromatic
Cineole – promotes clarity and respiratory health
Depending on the type and concentration, cinnamon oil can be quite potent — so we always use it thoughtfully and at skin-safe levels.

We love cinnamon essential oil for its rich, spicy aroma and its ability to bring warmth and life to natural formulations — especially in cooler seasons or for invigorating morning routines.
In hemp seed oil soap, it adds a natural purifying effect and a subtle energising scent
In diffuser blends, it brings warmth, vibrance, and mental clarity
