Benzoin Essential Oil

Select Size

Benzoin essential oil is a warming remedy, traditionally used in eastern medicine.

A natural decongestant, benzoin oil can help open up airways and allow easier breathing in the face of cold and flu symptoms.

Benzoin's aromatic properties allow it to mask unpleasant odours, whilst its stimulating, circulation-boosting abilities help 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.

Benzoin's use can be found throughout the history of eastern medicine. When it found its way to the west it was seen as expensive and desirable due to the many benefits of its rich scent - so much so that Queen Elizabeth I wore a benzoin-based perfume for many years.
