Palo Santo

Palo Santo is a fragrant wood derived from the Bursera graveolens tree, native to the dry forests of South America. It has a warm, balsamic aroma with notes of pine, citrus, and a hint of mint. The wood is traditionally burned as incense, releasing a soothing, spiritual scent.

Palo Santo is known for its calming, grounding, and spiritually uplifting properties. Fragrances featuring this note can promote feelings of relaxation, introspection, and connection to nature. It is often used to create a sense of tranquility and mindfulness, making it suitable for wear during meditation, yoga, or other contemplative activities.

Palo Santo is commonly used as a base note in natural and artisanal perfumes, adding depth, warmth, and a grounding, earthy quality. It pairs well with other woody, resinous, and balsamic notes like frankincense, myrrh, and amber. Palo Santo-based fragrances are often found in meditation, yoga, and wellness-inspired scents.
