Cajeput essential oil is extracted from the melaleuca leucadendron (also known as white tea tree). This oil has a scent very similar to eucalyptus and is known for its analgesic, balsamic, and soothing properties. It can be used for steam inhalation or massages. In aromatherapy, it is known for its relaxing properties. It is advisable to apply it diluted using a carrier oil, or by mixing a few drops with other formulations.
