- A light sweetness comes through as the aroma settles, giving it a softer finish.

- Use it when you want a room fragrance that feels grounded, natural and unobtrusive.
Bursera graveolens wood oil from Peru
This essential oil is made from Bursera graveolens wood oil, a tree associated with the dry forests of South America. The name palo santo is commonly translated as ‘holy wood’, reflecting the way the wood has been valued in ritual and ceremonial settings.
How to use it thoughtfully
Add a few drops to a suitable diffuser or aroma burner according to your device instructions. For topical use, dilute well in a carrier oil and patch test first. Do not use internally.
Keep essential oils out of reach of children and pets. If you are pregnant, nursing, using it around young children, or have a medical condition, seek qualified guidance before use.
Palo santo in South American ritual
In South American traditions, palo santo has long been associated with purification, blessing and the clearing of a space before ceremony. The Incas are often linked with its ritual use, where fragrant wood smoke was part of practices centred on renewal and spiritual attention. In modern homes, the essential oil offers a gentler way to bring that symbolic language into a room, without making the ritual too formal. A drop in the diffuser can mark a transition: work to rest, noise to quiet, outside world to inner space.
