Sassafras is a tree known for its fragrance, native to the northern hemisphere.

The bark of sassafras roots produces an essential oil once used as a perfuming (fragrancing) agent, but it is expensive to produce, and its production is restricted; today a similar oil is produced during the manufacture of camphor.

The dried leaves of the sassafras tree are ground to make filé powder, which is used in the famous Louisiana Okra stew, gumbo, as a flavoring and thickening agent.
