Overview

Organic Scotch Pine Essential Oil

Our organic Scotch Pine essential oil is distilled from the needles of Pinus sylvestris – the only indigenous Pine in northern Europe.1 The scent of Pine is one of the most recognizable aromas, found in a multitude of household cleaning products, commonly (and sadly) as an artificial version of true Pine needle oil. Our oil, distilled in Bulgaria, rings of the forest with its strong, fresh, dry-balsamic and turpentine-like aroma and its distinctive, sweet-coniferous top note. 

Coniferous trees in general – Pine, Spruce, Fir – are the guardian trees of our planet with their specific refreshing, cleansing constituents. What we find in Scotch Pine essential oil is a complex array of simple monoterpene hydrocarbons; in addition to the ubiquitous and typical α- and β-pinenes, a considerable amount of limonene is also present, normally the bright and elevatingfeature of Citrus peel oils. Monoterpene hydrocarbons are among the essential oil constituents with the most pronounced refreshing and tonifying effects.

In a diffuser, Scotch Pine essential oil elevates the spirit with the freshness of the delicious air found amongst the stately trees of Pine forests. Traditionally, Native Americans used the needles and young shoots of Pinus sylvestris trees stuffed into bedding – the aromatic needles releasing α-pinenes as they slept. The aroma of this tranquil, fragrant experience can be simulated by preparing a dilution of Scotch Pine essential oil in spring water/alcohol to spray on mattresses, linens, curtains, or pillows.

Another beauty from Eden! I find it to have a bit of a sweet, creamy, vanilla note to it and it's not as sharp as some pines I've smelled. Should be good for people looking for a softer sweeter pine scent.

This oil is great for mixing with honey or sugar and eating at 4 to 7 drops. It totally gives you clarification in your mind or brain. It's amazing how clear the mind becomes. Every once in awhile I use 4 drops when I need some energy and it just totally clears my mind and makes me think better and clearer. And I'm not dead yet! I'm still talking. LOL I love this stuff but I don't use it daily because I'm not sure if that would be good to do. I just use it once a week to once a month. I don't realize how great it is until I use it again and it wows me every time. And I find when I can think better that I get more things done. And Thank you so much that its organic!

En mi paquete de muestras llego esta fragancia.. al abrirla, se siente el olor de un bosque lleno de pinos y humedad de lluvia.. naturaleza en todo su esplendor!! Esta es la imagen de una laguna en Colombia.. su nombre es Neusa y esta rodeada de pinos... Vale la pena tener dos o mas onzas de esta fragancia de aroma perfecto!!

Experiencing Scotch Pine is something you do not want to miss. This is a well rounded Pine - think of walking through an enchanted forest at night during the summer. It's not harsh or anything even resembling a commercial cleaner or an over the counter mens cologne,this one sneaks up on you like a magical unicorn under a Christmas tree.
