Balsam

Balsam is a rich, resinous fragrance note derived from various trees and plants. It offers a warm, sweet, and slightly medicinal aroma with woody undertones. Balsam is often extracted from trees like fir, pine, or poplar, and has been used in traditional medicine and perfumery for centuries.

The scent of balsam evokes feelings of comfort, warmth, and tranquility. It can be grounding and soothing, making it ideal for fragrances worn during colder months or for relaxation. Balsam-based fragrances are perfect for cozy evenings by the fireplace, outdoor winter activities, or when you want to feel wrapped in a comforting embrace.

In perfumery, balsam is typically used as a base note, providing depth and longevity to fragrances. It blends well with woody, spicy, and oriental notes, often found in warm, comforting fragrances. Balsam is particularly popular in winter scents and masculine fragrances, adding a touch of sophistication and warmth.
