Fir Balsam Absolute is a rich, aromatic extract obtained from the needles and branches of the Balsam Fir (Abies balsamea (L.) Mill.), a majestic evergreen tree native to Canada’s boreal forests. This absolute is prized in perfumery and aromatherapy for its deep, resinous, and forest-like scent that evokes the tranquility of northern woodlands. Its fragrance combines notes of sweet balsamic sap, fresh green needles, and warm woody undertones, creating a complex yet calming olfactory experience.
Harvested sustainably from Canadian fir trees, the resin is processed to extract a thick, dark green absolute that retains the full depth and nuance of the forest’s scent. It is frequently used in high-end fragrances, incense, and natural wellness products. Beyond its aromatic appeal, Fir Balsam Absolute is believed to have grounding and soothing properties, often used to reduce stress and promote emotional balance.
Its connection to Canada’s pristine wilderness makes it a cherished ingredient for those seeking a pure, nature-inspired essence with both aromatic and therapeutic value.
