It also occurs in some other related trees in the laurel family, notably Ocotea usambarensis. Dried rosemary leaves (Rosmarinus officinalis), in the mint family, contain up to 20% camphor while camphorweed (Heterotheca) only contains some 5%.Camphor can also be synthetically produced from oil of turpentine. It is used for its scent, as an ingredient in cooking as an embalming fluid, for medicinal purposes, and in religious ceremonies. A major source of camphor in Asia is camphor basil (the parent of African blue basil).
