Product Description: Cinnamomum camphora is a large evergreen tree that grows up to 20–30 m tall. It is a member of the laurel family, grown in eastern Asia and yielding camphor. Camphor laurel has six different chemical variants called chemotypes, which are camphor, linalool, cineole, nerolidol, safrole, or borneol. The fruit is a small, globose, fleshy berry, less than 1 cm (0.25 to 0.5 in) in diameter, that ripens to purple black and is partly surrounded by a cup-like perianth (developed from the outer parts of the flower). The whole plant has a strong scent from the camphor oil, an aromatic terpenoid compound, which occurs in the bark, twigs, and leaves.
