Origin: Ramón Castillo, Peru
Extraction Method: Steam Distillation from the Aniba rosaeodora tree.
Species: A highly valuable tree that only grows in the Amazon, Aniba Rosaeodora (Amazonian Rosewood / Brazilian Rosewood), has traditionally been used for its skin healing and regenerative properties.
Description: Delicate, sweet floral aroma with warm earthy woody notes with a velvety endnote
Aromatherapy: For emotional balance and creating a refreshing and relaxing environment. Promotes a balancing and calming effect without inducing drowsiness. Often recommended for headaches and anxiety.
Plant info: Rosewood is a canopy tree of non-flooded terra firma areas of the Brazilian and Peruvian Amazon. Its overexploitation both for timber and essential oil has led to its classification as an endangered species by the IUCN and CITES, leading to a moratorium on all wild harvest of the species by Peru's national forest authority.
Benefits: Rosewood is effectively antiviral and antifungal in a laboratory setting, but its essential oil is typically used for the highly pleasurable aromatic experience it provides.
