Canadian cedar, commonly known as Eastern White Cedar (Thuja occidentalis), is a conifer native to the forested areas of eastern Canada and the north-central United States. It is renowned not only for its durability and resistance to decay but also for its distinctive aromatic qualities.

The scent profile of Canadian cedar is often described as clean, fresh, and woody with a hint of sweetness. It releases a subtle, comforting aroma that can be reminiscent of a mix between pine and eucalyptus. The scent is naturally soothing and is believed to have calming properties, making it a popular choice for use in aromatherapy and personal care products.

Canadian cedarwood oil, derived from the tree, is frequently utilized in perfumery and scented products. It imparts a warm, balsamic note that blends well with other woody and resinous scents. The essential oil is also appreciated in home fragrance products, such as candles and diffusers, for its gentle, grounding fragrance that evokes the serenity of a forest. Additionally, the wood itself is often used in closets and storage settings to impart its pleasing aroma as well as its natural moth-repelling properties.
