Benzoin Essential Oil
Warming benzoin has been used in traditional eastern medicine for thousands of years and to this day, is valued for many of the same properties as it was all those years ago. A natural decongestant, benzoin can open up airways and allow easier breathing in the face of cold and flu symptoms. Its aromatic properties allow it mask unpleasant odours, whilst its stimulating, circulation-boosting abilities keep us warm in colder months.
Our 100% Pure Benzoin Essential Oil has a rich, honey-like smell that gives it an air of indulgence and expensiveness. This oil is brown in colour and is extracted from the benzoin tree resin, native to Thailand. Almost treacle-like in consistency, benzoin has to be heated before use to get the oil flowing freely.
