Wild Opoponax Essential Oil is extracted from the resin of the Commiphora erythraea tree in Somalia, where the tree's trunk is regularly incised to produce resinous "tear" clumps. Revered by King Solomon as the noblest of resins, this oil has a warm, fruity scent with notes of unripe mangoes, resin, and balsamic sweetness.
Upon first encounter, the oil’s unique blend of fruitiness and resinous depth captivates the senses, making it a favorite among perfumers. Its rich, sweet, and woody aroma blends well with floral, citrus, and leathery notes, making it versatile in various fragrance compositions.
