This is a great material and an especially good value for the low cost.
The scent has immediate complexity. Three things emerge right out of the gate. Smoke, vanilla and salt. In dry down, it becomes more powdery. It can work well in oriental bases with various combos of Styrax, vanilla,labdanum,sandalwood, but I recommend limiting its use to very small amounts in any blend. Only one review here states that it has no odor to speak of. I would suggest the reviewer see an otolaryngologyist for possible anosmia.

vanillla + poplar bud Review by

great one, but so tenacious and the smell is overwhelming, so better be careful with this one

smells vanilla to me of course plus the smell of poplar bud gum when they fall from the tree in the spring.

Reading the description you think WOW, this will be amazing. But it barely has any fragrance whatsoever. Luckily I didn't pay much for it so at least there's that. I won't be back

Bully-proof greasy car parts and burnt tires in a bottle with benzene-ish drydown Review by
Rating

This one doesn't mess around! It's a bully repellant! This is Copaiba on steroids (I tried that one earlier) with a decidedly Vetiverish dry-down. This one is even more overpowering, more intoxicating and even more assertive-masculine than Copaiba, if that's even possible! As with the other resin, this is my first time ever sampling Peru Balsam, and it totally smells like a junkyard: greasy automobile parts and burnt tires... if they had a non-offensive, provocative fragrance, this would be it. My girl-nose definitely prefers Copaiba, it's slightly "cleaner". Even though both are somewhat similar (greasy, motor-oily and leathery) this one adds the "dirty" and burnt touch, and is even more "in-your-face" overpowering. (1 single drop, no more, and build your blend from there!)

Not for the timid... unless you want to be the Nutty alter-ego of that 1950's shy movie Professor! Ideal for ultra-masculine blends. If I was a (boy) security guard at the junkyard working the graveyard shift but too scared of ghosts and other spooks, to go outside, I'd stay indoors playing video games, and, right before the boss came in, I'd dab a couple drops of this: I'd smell doused in gasoline, like I've been patrolling the spare parts and scrap metal lot the whole night! It's the scent of when you come out from fixing the underside of your car, and your face is all smeared in thick oil and your leather jacket totally exudes the fragrance of Peru Balsam... in a strangely dirty-clean good way!

I love this oil just on its own! I dilute and wear it alone,It has become one of my favorite fragrances. However like someone stated above it doesn’t like to miss behave in Berlin and a little goes a long way couple drops no more. You can always add more but you can’t take any out here it has become one of my favorite fragrances. However like someone stated above it does like to miss behave in Blends and a little goes a long way couple drops no more. You can always add more but you can’t take any out ya know! I find this fragrance to be heavenly and I can’t wait to work with that more and find out what pairs well with it

Unique, Versatile, Long-Lasting, Eye-Widening Scent Review by

This is one of my favorite oils by far! I would personally describe the fragrance as honeyed and lightly smoked vanilla, ambery with a woody/balsamic underlying note. Many of my own blends are being infiltrated by this unique oil, and I've found it to work really well as a substitute for amber (in tandem with cistus/labdanum and copaiba balsam) and vanilla (with benzoin). A little goes a long way--the blends I've made with this have only required a drop or two to bring out its amazing scent, yet it can also be used in larger quantities for a very vanilla- and amber-like base. It also has one of the longest lasting scents of all of the essential oils I've worked with thus far (60+), with its baser notes of smoky, coniferous vanilla lasting well into the next day. Highly recommended!!!

inexplicably fishy in blends. Review by

on its own, this note is unreal: warm and sweet and almost culinary off the top, with a background saltiness, almost a fattiness, that melts into this stunning charred wood and smoke, properly acrid to the nose. it smells like an inverted sister scent to benzoin.

but in blends is where it starts to misbehave. that same saltiness becomes, in the presence of other materials, fish. sardines. salty, fatty, fishy sardines just hovering in the background, unwilling to be covered up. it unfurls into that beautiful, roasted marshmallow, autumn bonfire scent during the actual drydown, but by then, the damage is done. there's nothing i can do to cover the top that doesn't also weaken that gorgeous drydown i want. maybe it's the batch i got, but i can't help but feel a little devastated!

Very sweet, delicious vanilla, hindered only by a subtle mustard seed note.
