BALSAM FIR

Balsam Fir is steam distilled from the balsam fir tree.

Aromatically, Balsam Fir has a refreshing, clean, and airy scent.

Historically, Native Americans have used Balsam Fir for a variety of ritual and wellness purposes. Today, it is often used for its brilliant aroma. It produces an enlivened, bright, fresh atmosphere and can transform any environment into a welcoming, sanctuary. Diffuse Balsam Fir throughout your home to experience its majestic aroma. Additionally, you can use Balsam Fir on the skin. Dilute with a carrier oil—like Fractioned Coconut Oil—and massage into your skin and tissues for a soothing sensation. Not only is the experience calming and grounding, but you get to carry the supportive scent of Balsam Fir around with you as a result! Finally, take advantage of Balsam Fir’s cleansing properties by adding it to a natural cleaner. A few drops of Wild Orange and Balsam Fir in a spray bottle with water makes for one of the best smelling kitchen cleaners of all time. 

Top Uses

Always follow recommended dilution when applying. DO NOT take this oil internally.

• Diffuse during gatherings with friends and family.
