Pinyon Pine

Pinyon pine is a small, aromatic evergreen tree native to the southwestern United States. Its resinous, nutty-sweet scent comes from the essential oils in its needles and wood. Pinyon pine nuts are a prized food source for many indigenous peoples in the region.

Fragrances featuring pinyon pine tend to have a grounding, comforting effect, evoking feelings of coziness and connection to nature. They work well in cooler weather and can create a sense of warmth and relaxation. Pinyon pine notes are suitable for both casual and more formal occasions.

Pinyon pine is commonly used as a base note in fragrances, providing a warm, woody, and slightly resinous character. It pairs well with other earthy, balsamic notes like frankincense, myrrh, and patchouli. Pinyon pine is often found in rugged, outdoorsy scents that evoke the American Southwest.
