This essential oil, derived from the leaf of Eucalyptus olida is used in flavoring and perfumery. The whole leaf is used as a dried spice product in bush food cooking, especially with fruit and in herbal teas.

It may be employed as a digestive aid with therapeutic properties offering a balancing, anti-spasmodic, sedative activity for the nervous system, and for conditions of anxiety and depression..
