I noticed that YL doesn’t offer Eucalyptus Citriodora as a single oil. Why not?
Hello Bonnie, At this time, we do not offer Eucalyptus Citriodora individually. However, it is a part of some of our blends such as R.C. We do not have specific information available to provide for why we do not offer it individually. However, it is typically due to the lack of supply that meets our high quality standards or the lack of demand. Thank you for stopping by!
these 3 oils are found in my top 3 oils! Thieves, RC, and Breathe Again. Every day I am amazed when I realize how blessed I am to be part of this awesome company. :)

To actually answer Jenni’s question: Lemon eucalyptus is its own tree (i.e. it does not mean lemon plus eucalyptus). Another term for this tree is “Eucalyptus citriodora,” which Young Living does not sell.
Which eucalyptus variation smells most like the plant typically found in floral arrangements?
Hey Danielle,
The eucalyptus you’re most likely looking for is Eucalyptus Blue, but there are hundreds of different species that florists use, so it all depends on the arrangement! We think Eucalyptus Globulus, Radiata, and Blue would all make a wonderful addition to any floral arrangement. Thanks for stopping by!
Any idea when Eucalyptus Radiata will be available again?
Thanks
Hi Rita, At this time we do not have an estimated date for when Eucalyptus Radiata will be available. We recommend checking the Out of Stock list located in your Virtual Office for any updates. Thanks for stopping by with your question!
Hi Young Living…thank you for all of your hard work in providing the best quality oils. Question: I know RC has Eucalyptus citriodora in it…wI’ll it ever be a single oil available?
Hi Jessica, thanks for your question! At this time we do not have specific information about if this product will be offered as a single oil. We appreciate your interest in this product!

Is eucalptus riadata suitable for infant below 1 yr old ? Just difussin? Very diluted application on soles – is it ok?
Hello Grace, Eucalyptus essential oils can be challenging to a baby’s sensitive system so some individuals choose to use extra caution with these oils or blends containing them. If you have additional questions, be sure to talk to your health care professional for personalized guidance for your infant. You may find the information given on this blog post useful as well: Essential Oils in the Nursery Thanks for stopping by!
Hi, my question is : My dad has an allergy to the Eucalyptus plant and whenever the greens are added to a floral arrangement he can’t be around him. Are the oils different from the plant and would he be likely to have an allergic reaction to the oils? Thanks!
Hi Heather, As your dad is allergic to the Eucalyptus plant it is possible that he could be sensitive to Eucalyptus oil. We recommend that he speak with a health care professional prior to using Eucalyptus oil.
I was reading through some of the above responses and is it my understanding that you can no longer have the same oil that’s used for all 3, aromatic, topical & internal in the same bottle? You are now required to have a separate bottle of Eucalyptus specifically for internal use in a separate bottle even though it’s the same oil as the other bottle indicated for aromatic & internal?
Great questions, Carrie! Although the same high quality essential oil constituents are in both the topical/aromatic products and the dietary Vitality products, the new Vitality line is intended to allow members to differentiate between those oils for dietary use and those for topical/aromatic use. Always refer to the product labels for proper usage instructions. Thanks for stopping by with your questions!
What happened to Eucalyptus Dives?
Hi Janie, Thank you for your question. Eucalyptus Dives was retired in 2011. Young Living has carefully reviewed redundancies in the oil line and decided that eucalyptus blue provides the enhanced health-promoting benefits.
What is the botanical name of eucalyptus blue? If it’s not globulus or radiata, then what variety of eucalyptus plant does the oil come from?
Hi Hope, Great question! The botanical name of Eucalyptus Blue is Eucalyptus bicostata. Thanks for stopping by!
Is Eucalyptus radiata no longer available?
Hi Dawn, Eucalytpus Radiata has been temporarily removed from our product listing because it may be out of stock for an extended period of time due to supply constraints.
Did Eucalyptus Globulus recently change its uses? I have a book that states it can be used for dietery, so I ordered a bottle and it states Topical and Aromatic. I also had customers looking for eucalyptus that can be ingested. Any help would be great!
Hi Crystal, Great question! Young Living has recently made some changes to the instruction panel on our essential oil labels. These changes align our labels with FDA regulations that state a product cannot be labeled for use as a Dietary supplement AND for Topical or Aromatic use. In compliance with these regulations, our essential oils will display labels that will distinguish the products intended as a Dietary supplement and those intended to be used for Topical application or Aromatic use. This new labeling does not reflect any changes to the constituents or benefits of our essential oils. Eucalyptus Globulus is currently labeled for Topical application and Aromatic use. In the event a Young Living product is used in a manner not consistent with labeling, you should always use your best judgment and consult your health care professional if you have any concerns. We hope this information is helpful!
Beautiful answer!!! This helps so much with how WE discuss the difference between vitality and topical/aromatic.

My husband inhales Eucalyptus Globulus Essential Oil when he gets in bed every night. He then rubs his feet. As a result, I get six hours of peaceful sleep! Thanks, Eucalyptus Globulus! :-)
It’s frustrating when ordering they don’t back order. Does that mean I need to go every day to see if it is in stock? Thanks.
Hi Diane, You may find the information on the Out of Stock list in the Virtual Office useful in determining when an item may become available. We appreciate your patience!
I especially love diffusing RC…which has all 3 Eucalyptus oil species Young Living offers in it!
Not only am I feeding my body healthy molecules, but I love how clean the air smells!!

Why do people keep posting recipes that contain sandalwood??? I can’t find it for sale at Young Living …..
I had the same problem. Look for
Hawiian Sandlewood.
Cedarwood
I am curious which of the 3 oils you would recommend for children. Are they all safe for young kids or is there one that is not as strong?
Our KidScents SniffleEase oil contains several varieties of eucalyptus oil, and is specially formulated for children aged 2-12. Take a look here: https://www.youngliving.com/us/en/product/kidscents-sniffleease
Hope this helps!
I am ADDICTED to Eucalyptus Radiata!! I have not tried the other two Eucalyptus oils though. Gotta add those to my future shopping list. :D
Which of the three eucalyptus oils smells the most like Vicks? I also would like to get the most potent smelling eucalyptus oil that I can get. I just love the smell.
Thank you.
Hi JoAnn! We would recommend Eucalyptus Globulus.
I’d love to see citriodora available as a single
I was inspired by this post to try Eucalyptus Globulus in my diffuser. I created a mixture of Eucalyptus Globulus, Copaiba and Lavender for a great relaxing work environment! Thanks for the inspiration!
I love the Eucalyptus Globulus. I use it often blended with many of my other oils in my massages!
Aside from the smell, I would love to know more about any differences in their applications and benefits along with their frequency differences. :-)
Hi Anna! Eucalyptus Blue, Eucalyptus Radiata, and Eucalyptus Globulus are different species of the plant from different geographical locations of harvest. Although very similar in composition, they do contain one or two different constituents. Eucalyptus Blue is grown and distilled on Young Living’s farm in Ecuador. It is an oil that is high in eucalyptol, which is calming and invigorating when diffused. Eucalyptus globulus has an earthy, fresh aroma and has been used in many oral-care products for its cleansing properties. Eucalyptus radiata is a key ingredient in Young Living’s Thieves oil blend due to its wide range of beneficial properties. This oil contains citral, a constituent known for its cleansing abilities. Hope this helps!
I wouldn’t use anyone but Young Living because of their seed to seal!!! It is the best therapeutic grade and best smelling oils in the world!!! They have helped me so much!😊
I am interested in the Eucalyptus Oil for foot treatment.
Do you have Young Living oils already? Or are you just looking for a recipe?
After reading this post I wanted to try diffusing Eucalyptus Radiata and Lavender together in my family room while I worked. It was wonderfully fresh and I got so much work done while breathing! Love it!
Great article.
