Manuka oil is drawn from Leptospermum scoparium, the wiry shrub also known for its honey, through steam distillation of its leaves and branches. The result is earthy, honeyed, and warm, with a resinous depth that lingers softly beneath brighter citrus and floral notes in a blend.

Dilution & Safety

Manuka oil is a concentrated botanical extract, so always dilute it to 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil before applying to skin, and patch test on a small area first. Keep it away from eyes, children, and pets, and never take it internally. Store the bottle tightly capped in a shaded, moderate-temperature spot.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is this manuka oil 100% pure?
Yes. Every bottle of our manuka oil is bottled 100% pure and undiluted, with nothing added or blended in. You can review the exact specifications on our published Certificate of Analysis before you buy or reorder.
How is manuka oil different from tea tree oil?
Both come from close botanical relatives, but manuka is distilled from Leptospermum scoparium while common tea tree comes from a different species entirely. Manuka's aroma runs earthier, honeyed, and warmer, with a rounder depth that reads noticeably different from tea tree's sharper, medicinal edge.
What does manuka oil smell like?
Expect an earthy, honeyed aroma with a gentle spicy warmth underneath, more grounded and sweet than a typical bush oil. It layers well with lavender, citrus oils, and geranium, and works nicely alongside other forest and woodland notes in a blend.
How should I dilute manuka oil for skin use?
For topical use, dilute manuka oil to between 0.5% and 2% in a carrier oil such as jojoba or sweet almond, then patch test on a small area before wider use. It is not meant to be applied undiluted or taken internally.
What sizes does manuka oil come in?
We offer nine sizes of manuka oil, starting at 0.5 oz for sampling and scaling all the way up to 400 lbs for wholesale and production use, with several bottle and bulk sizes in between to match whatever quantity you need.
Does the price per ounce change with size?
Yes. Per-ounce cost falls steadily as size increases, and our largest 400 lb size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the smallest 0.5 oz bottle, making bulk sizes a meaningfully better value for high-volume use.
Is bulk manuka oil covered by lab documentation?
Yes, every size we sell, including bulk drums, is covered by the same published Certificate of Analysis. If you need anything further for a bulk order, please contact us before ordering so we can help.
Which size of manuka oil should I choose?
The 0.5 oz or 1 oz bottles suit anyone trying manuka oil for the first time, 2 oz to 8 oz cover regular home use, and 16 oz through 400 lbs are built for makers, formulators, and resellers working at production scale.
How fast does manuka oil ship?
Orders typically ship within 1 to 2 business days. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs and up may need a little extra handling time before they leave our facility. Checkout runs through our Shopify store, so you will see live shipping options there.
What role does manuka oil play in a fragrance blend?
Manuka behaves like a base note, the way a true wood oil would, anchoring lighter top notes and giving a blend more staying power. Perfumers and candle makers often reach for it when they want an earthy, honeyed foundation beneath citrus, lavender, or geranium.
