Benzoin Essential Oil

Benzoin is a balsamic, vanilla-like resin distilled from the tropical shrubs of the genus Styrax. Its comforting aroma functions as a fine fixative in fragrances and was a key component in perfumes past. This thick resinous essence is steam distilled, which is a rare find as it is often available only as an absolute extraction. The oil may be enjoyed as a comforting euphoric-aroma wafting through your home, as a warming chest balm, and as a skin serum to improve the appearance of skin tone.
