Woody Notes
Palo Santo is a distinctive woody note with a complex aroma profile that combines sweet, resinous, and slightly smoky characteristics. It offers a fresh, clean, and slightly mystical scent with hints of citrus, mint, and pine. The fragrance is light yet profound, with a meditative and purifying quality that evokes spiritual and natural environments.
Palo Santo, meaning 'holy wood' in Spanish, is a tree native to the coastal regions of South America, particularly Peru, Ecuador, and parts of Brazil. The wood is typically harvested from naturally fallen trees and extracted through steam distillation or cold-pressing methods. Sustainable harvesting practices are crucial to protect the species and maintain ecological balance.
