Black Spruce Essential Oil — 10 ml

🌿 Introduction
Black Spruce Essential Oil is a deeply grounding, resinous, and forest-fresh essence distilled from the needles and twigs of the Picea mariana tree, native to the boreal forests of North America. Its aroma is clean, woody, and slightly sweet , with a subtle balsamic undertone that evokes the stillness of pine forests after rain.
Revered for its balancing and restorative properties , Black Spruce is known as the “forest breath” of aromatherapy — opening the lungs, clearing the mind, and reconnecting the spirit to nature. In perfumery, it serves as a refined woody base and fixative , harmonizing seamlessly with conifer, resin, and spice notes.
At Herbsmetics, Black Spruce Essential Oil is featured in our Perfume & Aromatherapy Workshops in Phuket , where guests discover how this northern evergreen conveys strength, serenity, and emotional renewal in both fragrance and wellness blends.
