Sharp, green and resinous, this Scots pine essential oil brings the feeling of clean woodland air into an aromatherapy blend. Distilled from the needles of Pinus sylvestris, it has a crisp conifer character with a dry, woody edge that suits diffusers, oil burners and handmade fragrance blends.
Crisp pine scent and character

For blending, it pairs naturally with cedarwood, rosemary, lavandin, sage, labdanum and juniper.
Its dry, woody profile suits seasonal home fragrance, bath-time preparations and simple aromatherapy blends.
