eucalyptus oil
Menthol-scented leaf distillate
Eucalyptus oil is an essential oil extracted from eucalyptus leaves, with a sharp, camphor-like scent.
It's used medicinally as a decongestant and antiseptic, often in vapor rubs and cough drops: The smell of eucalyptus oil always reminds me of being sick as a kid.
It also appears in cleaning products, insect repellents, and aromatherapy.
