Rosewood oil

Description

Rosewood essential oil has a warm, gentle and slightly floral-woody scent that immediately evokes a sense of harmony and balance. The oil is extracted from the wood of the Aniba rosaeodora, a tree native to the Amazon region.

The aroma combines the warmth of wood with a subtle rose-like sweetness. This gives the fragrance a feeling that is both grounding and heart-opening. The wood is carefully processed and transformed through steam distillation into an oil with a gentle, rounded and harmonising effect.

Rosewood feels like a bridge between the mind and the heart. Its scent helps you to relax and unwind, whilst remaining clear-headed and present.

Use rosewood for special occasions; the wood is felled in the rainforests and is becoming scarce. Personally, I only use the oil when I really can’t think of any other alternative.
