Fir Needle Siberian Essential Oil — 10 ml

🌿 Introduction
Fir Needle Siberian Essential Oil is a fresh, clean, and invigorating essence distilled from the needles of the Siberian fir ( Abies sibirica ), a conifer native to the vast forests of Russia and Siberia. Its fragrance is crisp, resinous, and forest-like , with a softer, sweeter character than pine oils.
Traditionally valued for respiratory support, immune strength, and purification , fir needle oil has long been used in Russian folk medicine and steam baths ( banya ). In perfumery, it contributes a green, balsamic freshness that evokes the purity of evergreen forests.
At Herbsmetics, we feature Fir Needle Siberian oil in our Perfume & Aromatherapy Workshops in Phuket , where guests experience its bright, uplifting forest note and learn how it differs from pine and spruce oils.
