Cade Crude 2 oil

Whatsapp Order

Cade Crude 2 Oil is a dark, viscous essential oil obtained through destructive distillation of the wood of the Juniperus oxycedrus tree (also known as prickly juniper). Known for its intense smoky, tar-like aroma and antiseptic qualities, this crude-grade cade oil is widely used in traditional skin remedies, veterinary care, and industrial cosmetic applications—especially in products aimed at treating chronic skin conditions such as psoriasis, eczema, and dandruff.

While not as refined as rectified Cade oil, Cade Crude 2 Oil retains a high concentration of phenols, cresols, and other active compounds that contribute to its strong antimicrobial, antifungal, and antipruritic effects. It is used cautiously in topical formulations at low dilution levels and is valued in rustic and smoky fragrance compositions.
