Essential oils from Schinus molle L. berries and leaves were analysed by means of GC–MS. Berry oil contained mainly α‐ and β‐phellandrene (55.4% and 15.4% respectively) along with limonene (14.3%). Leaf oil which also contained α‐ and β‐phellandrene and limonene (30.2%, 9.6% and 9.3% respectively), was characterizied by the presence of sesquiterpenes such as elemol (13.3%), germacrene‐D (5.2%), γ‐eudesmol (3.2%) and T ‐cadinol (4.7%), which were present only in traces in the oil from the berries.
