Description

Our organically crafted Balsam Fir Essential Oil is steam distilled from the aromatic green needles and twigs of the Abies balsamea evergreen tree growing in northeastern Canada. The oil has a distinctively woodsy, balsamic, evergreen aroma and a very light, clean terpenic top note like reminiscent of freshly crushed fir needles.

The Balsam Fir is a native evergreen conifer well-adapted to the cold climates of the northern United States and Canada. Its symmetrical spire-like crown, shining dark green color and sweet, turpentine fragrance created by the abundant resin in its bark and needles have made it a favourite Christmas tree for hundreds of years. The branches are also popular in holiday wreaths and other greenery. In the landscape, this fir is used as a specimen as well as part of a screen or windbreak.REPORTED BENEFITS AND USESBright and elevating, Balsam Fir Essential Oil is highly recommended for use in diffusers to purify the environment in enclosed spaces and especially to help ward off infectious bacterias that circulate in the winter months.
