If you wanted to distill the scent of Christmas, this precious New Zealand Douglas fir oil (Pseudotsuga menziesii) is just that. Despite being unrelated, It melds together aspects of the very best of the two more well-known perfumery products of Siberian fir needle oil (Abies siberica) and fir balsam absolute (Abies balsamea) but adds a wonderful (and unexpected) sparkling citrus note. Every drop exudes the fresh wild scent of nature. This is a superior oil in every way.
This fir oil is grown and harvested in the pure unspoilt regions of the South Island of New Zealand and uses only young branch tips and needles. It is steam distilled.
According to Steffan Arctander, Douglas fir needle oil exhibits “a softness and a sweetness, a very rich bodynote and a great odour tenacity which exceptional for a ‘pine needle oil’.”
Blends well with: other conifer oils, oakmoss, citrus oils (particularly grapefruit), labdanum.
Origin: Otago, South Island, New Zealand
Variety: Pseudotsuga menziesii
Part: Young needles and branches
