Discover the sacred, resinous warmth of pure Palo Santo Essential Oil, steam distilled from the wood of Bursera Graveolens sourced from Peru. Warm, sweet and deeply complex — with a rich, woody resinousness, a soft citrus brightness and a warm, slightly minty balsamic depth — Palo Santo is one of the most distinctive, spiritually resonant and increasingly sought-after essential oils in the world of natural aromatherapy and sacred fragrance.

Palo Santo means 'Holy Wood' in Spanish — and few botanicals carry a name more fitting. A wild tree native to the dry tropical forests of Ecuador, Peru and the wider Gran Chaco region of South America, Bursera Graveolens has been used for centuries by the indigenous peoples of the Andes and the Amazon in sacred ceremony, ritual cleansing and traditional healing practice. Shamans and healers have long burned Palo Santo wood to clear negative energy, purify spaces and invite positive, protective spirits — a practice that continues to this day across South America and increasingly across the world.

Crucially, authentic Palo Santo Essential Oil is produced only from naturally fallen trees and branches — wood that has lain on the forest floor for a minimum of four to ten years, during which time the extraordinary resinous compounds that give the oil its unique aromatic character slowly develop and mature within the wood. No living trees are felled in its production, making sustainably sourced Palo Santo one of the most ethically and ecologically considered essential oils available.

With its warm, sacred and deeply grounding character, Palo Santo Essential Oil is a treasured choice for diffusing during meditation, mindfulness and spiritual practice, and a uniquely beautiful and distinctive note in natural perfumery and home fragrance blending.
