Benzoin Siam Organic Resinoid 55% ETH – Sweet Balsamic Vanilla is a luxurious natural perfumery ingredient celebrated for its beautifully rich combination of warm balsamic sweetness, creamy vanilla, golden amber, and delicate caramel-like nuances. Traditionally obtained from the resin of the Styrax tonkinensis tree, Siam benzoin is highly valued in fine perfumery for its comforting warmth, elegant resinous depth, and distinctive vanilla-like character.


Supplied as a 55% resinoid preparation in ethanol (ETH), this material offers professional perfumers a convenient format for incorporating the rich aromatic character of natural benzoin into fragrance formulations.


The aroma opens with an inviting wave of sweet balsamic warmth, revealing a smooth vanilla character complemented by subtle caramel and soft, resinous undertones. Its distinctive sweetness evokes golden resin, warm vanilla pods, and delicate confectionery nuances without losing its natural balsamic identity.


As the material develops, deeper amber-like facets emerge, introducing a rounded, comforting richness that beautifully supports woody, floral, gourmand, and oriental-inspired fragrance compositions.


Compared with the drier, spicier character often associated with Sumatra benzoin, Siam benzoin is particularly appreciated for its smoother, sweeter, and more pronounced vanilla-balsamic profile.


In professional perfumery, Benzoin Siam Organic Resinoid is especially valuable for amber accords, vanilla fragrances, balsamic compositions, incense-inspired creations, gourmand perfumes, and sophisticated woody bases.


Its rich resinous character makes it particularly useful for rounding sharp edges, enriching fragrance bases, supporting sweet accords, and contributing to the lasting warmth of a perfume.


Benzoin Siam blends beautifully with vanilla absolute, vanillin, tonka bean, labdanum, frankincense, myrrh, sandalwood, cedarwood, patchouli, rose, jasmine, cocoa, tobacco, cinnamon, and soft musks.
