Description of Bay Oil

Steam-distilled from the incredibly fragrant leaves of the West Indian Bay tree, Bay Oil Terpeneless has a smooth and spicy odor, with a sweet and somewhat balsamic tinge. Also known as "Bay Rum" and "Bay Laurel," this oil has powdery, slightly green undertones, making it especially popular among "Masculine" colognes and other fine fragrance types. The oil sees less usage in flavor, though it is a common addition to Caribbean-style spice blends intended for rice dishes, teas, and liqueurs.
