BALSAM FIR
Balsam fir has a fresh, green, crisp, and resinous aroma that evokes the essence of a dense forest. It offers a sharp, clean pine-like scent with woody undertones, reminiscent of cold winter forests and fresh Christmas trees. The fragrance is invigorating, slightly camphorous, and has a natural, pure quality that feels both cooling and comforting.
Origin & Extraction
Balsam fir essential oil is extracted from the needles and branches of the Abies balsamea tree, native to the northeastern regions of North America, particularly in Canada and the northeastern United States. The oil is typically obtained through steam distillation, which captures the pure, volatile aromatic compounds of the tree.
