Sometimes called ‘Banbar’ or “Marsh Honey Myrtle” this relative of Tea Tree is native to Southwestern Australia. The genus name derivation is quite interesting: Melaleuca from the Greek “melas”, meaning black and “leukos”, meaning white; referring to black marks on the white trunks of some species due to fire. The species name, teretifolia, is from Latin “teres”, meaning rounded; and “folius” meaning leaf, referring to the leaves of this species which are round in cross section.
In perfumery it is considered a top to middle note scent and blends well with citrus and herbaceous aromas.
An aged oil can contribute to irritancy. This essential oil is best stored in cold conditions for extending the shelf life to about three years. Its attributes include being useful against microbes, bacteria, fungus, and viruses. Unlike its relatives, Tea Tree, Niaouli and Lavender Tea Tree (Rosalina), this unique oil has the highest citral content of all the Melaleucas, contributing to its antimicrobial and antifungal activity. Like other oils prevalent with the constituent 1,8 cineole, Honey Myrtle is also an effective antimicrobial, especially for respiratory problems. As with many other Australian oils this is a good insecticide ingredient. It can also be used for skin problems, without fear of photosensitizing compounds found in citrus oils, especially cold pressed lemon oil. As a citrus note, its aroma is uplifting to body, mind and spirit. It can help invigorate and overcome lethargy while lightening the mood.
