Copaiba Balsam Resin is extracted from trees growing in the wild. They are found mainly in the South American rain forests, particularly in Brazil, Columbia, Peru and Venezuela. The resin is harvested by tapping or drilling holes into the trunk of the tree, much like how maple trees are tapped. Although this resin is often referred to as balsam, it is not a true balsam. Copaiba Balsam Essential Oil has been used historically in perfumes and colognes. Copaiba Balsam Essential Oil has an exotic spiced wood scent, with warm notes of honey. Glass bottle with tamper proof closure and removable dropper.
