Balm Notes

Balm notes offer a smooth, resinous scent often associated with healing and calming properties. They exude warmth, softness, and a comforting depth, frequently found in base notes to add longevity to perfumes. Balm notes are versatile and can enhance both floral and woody compositions, providing a rich, soothing layer that harmonizes well with other ingredients.

History & Production: Balm notes derive from the resins of various plants and trees. These resins are collected and processed to extract essential oils or balsams used in traditional medicine and perfumery. Resins like Balm of Gilead have been used for centuries for their soothing properties. Modern perfumers still value these ingredients for their natural, rich aroma and ability to add depth and warmth to fragrances.
