Palo Santo Essential Oil (Peru) 15ml
Palo Santo (Bursera graveolens) essential oil is a 15ml bottle distilled from naturally fallen "Holy Wood," ethically and sustainably sourced under authorization from Peru's forestry authority (Serfor) and distilled by Peruvian artisans. Its warm, sweet, resinous aroma is used aromatically, not as a health treatment. The oil is steam-distilled, the traditional method used to capture palo santo's natural aroma.

About the scent
For centuries, this Holy Wood has been part of Inca and Andean tradition. Many people diffuse palo santo essential oil to create a calming atmosphere for meditation or a quiet evening. Its warm, sweet aroma makes it a favorite in aromatherapy for a peaceful sense of balance and wellness.
Because the wood used is naturally fallen rather than harvested from living trees, palo santo oil production depends on trees that have already died and dried on the forest floor — part of why sourcing under Peru's Serfor forestry authorization matters for the long-term availability of the wood.
How to use it
Add a few drops to a diffuser to scent a room. For topical use, always dilute with a carrier oil before applying to skin, and do a small patch test first. Do not ingest. A little goes a long way, so start with just a drop or two before adding more. If you're diffusing in a small space like a bedroom, one to two drops is a reasonable starting point since the aroma is concentrated and fills a small room quickly.
Care & safety
For external and aromatic use only. Dilute with a carrier oil before any skin contact. This oil is flammable — keep it away from open flame and heat sources, and store the bottle tightly capped in a cool, dark place, out of reach of children and pets. Essential oils, including this one, should never be given to children or pets, and if accidental ingestion occurs, contact Poison Control or a physician immediately.
