Peru Balsam Essential Oil (El Salvador)
country of origin
El Salvador
Appearance and smell
Peru Balsam Essential Oil is a thick, dark amber to brown oil with a warm, rich aroma that has a soft, vanilla-sweet flavor with hints of cinnamon and caramel. Its rich, long-lasting scent makes it ideal for natural perfumes, diffusers and fixatives, and pairs particularly well with floral or woody essential oils.
Plant characteristics
It grows in Central America, especially on the Balsam Coast of El Salvador. The tree is often planted in coffee plantations to provide shade. Its resin is collected through special technology and is one of the important local natural resources.
Extraction Part
Resin
Main chemical components
Phenyl esters, terpene alcohols (nerolidol).
Historical Uses
Peru balsam has been used since ancient times by Mayan culture as an incense material to create a sacred atmosphere. In the 16th century, the Pope authorized the use of Peruvian balsam to replace the hard-to-obtain Balm of Gilead as a holy oil and incense ingredient in religious ceremonies. Although the name contains "Peru", the essential oil is actually mainly produced in El Salvador. In the past, it was exported to Europe from Peruvian ports, which gave it this misleading name.
