Import Tips
• Verify purity and origin certificates to confirm cedarwood source and avoid reclassification as a mixture
• Provide GC-MS lab analysis if required to prove it's a genuine essential oil, not a diluted product
• Label containers with botanical name (e.g
• Cedrus atlantica) for compliance with FDA cosmetic regulations
