One plant, two names
For camphor, the main reference works do not use the same name. The GBIF backbone accepts Cinnamomum camphora (L.) J.Presl as a species of the Lauraceae, the laurel family. The World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP), compiled at Kew, lists the same name as a synonym of Camphora officinarum Boerh. ex Fabr. Both names point to the same plant. The product name keeps Cinnamomum camphora because that is the name on the label; the second name helps when you look the plant up in botanical databases.
An extract, not an oil
This listing covers a solid resin extract. It is not an essential oil, a wood or leaf product, or a finished cosmetic. If you are comparing tree resins, the Resins category lists copal, dammar, benzoin and frankincense by botanical name and origin.
Packaging and delivery
Orders are packed on business days in neutral outer packaging that does not name the contents. Where tracking is available, you receive the link by email after dispatch. Delivery estimates and the 14-day withdrawal period, with its exceptions, are explained on the Delivery, Tracking & Returns page.
