The aim of this study was to determine the characteristics of cajuput oil. The raw material used is fresh cajuput leaves and the distillation process carried out is the steam-hydro distillation method. The characteristic analysis seen in this research includes yield of oil, water content of cajuput leaves, refractive index and sensory of the aroma and color of cajuput oil. The results showed cajuput oil with a yield value of 0.6%, water content of cajuput leaves of 64.36%, refractive index value of 1.470, aroma of cajuput leaves, and yellow color of cajuput oil. The characteristic of cajuput oil in this research was meet the Indonesian National Standard of cajuput oil.
