Balsam

Balsam is a rich and resinous fragrance note with a warm, slightly sweet scent profile that carries subtle woody and earthy undertones. Its aroma is deep, comforting, and soothing, adding a luxurious and grounding quality to perfumes. Balsam imparts a smooth, warm character and is often used as a base note to create depth and longevity in fragrance compositions. It pairs beautifully with floral, woody, and spicy notes, contributing to fragrances that are sophisticated, rich, and full of natural warmth.

History & Production: Balsam resins, sourced from trees such as fir, Peru balsam, and Tolu balsam, have been valued for centuries for their aromatic and therapeutic qualities. The resin is collected and processed to obtain essential oils or balsamic extracts, which capture the warm, rich scent of the tree sap. In perfumery, balsam is prized for its ability to add a deep, resinous depth that enhances the warmth and richness of fragrances, evoking a sense of natural beauty and timeless luxury.
