Our Black Spruce essential oil (Picea mariana) has an initially fresh, radiant, penetrating aroma that becomes warm, woody, and dry with a soft balsamic note in the dry down. It is of very fine quality with its aerial, 'fresh forest' essence. The powerful Spruce oils have become increasingly popular in aromatherapy, alongside the other needle oils like Fir and Pine, probably because they share similarly invigorating aromas and the remarkable energetics of the great coniferous forests of the world. At the same time, this oil also has a calming effect on the mind with its restorative, refreshing and purifying qualities, much in the same way a walk in a tranquil conifer forest brings about inner peace and a revived spirit.
