Palo Santo Essential Oil

Palo Santo Essential Oil
Bursera graveolens | Whole Wood (Branches) | Steam Distilled | Origin: Peru

Palo Santo Essential Oil, steam distilled from the naturally fallen wood of Bursera graveolens, carries a soft yet powerful aroma with sweet, woody, and resinous undertones. Long revered in South America as “holy wood,” Palo Santo has been used for centuries in cleansing rituals, meditation, and spiritual practices. Its grounding qualities make it a cherished oil for balancing emotions, easing tension, and encouraging a sense of sacred calm.

Our Palo Santo is ethically sourced from Peru, where only wood that has naturally fallen is gathered. The distiller we work with is directly involved in reforestation efforts, ensuring this precious tree is both respected and replenished for future generations.

Traditionally used by Indigenous communities for spiritual purification and protection, Palo Santo continues to be a favourite in meditation and yoga practices. Diffused, it clears and refreshes a space; applied in blends, it helps to soothe stress and nurture inner stillness.
