Description and Uses:

Benzoin Absolute is a richly aromatic, vanilla-scented resin absolute known for its ability to create a feeling of warmth, comfort, and emotional ease. Deeply soothing and softly sweet, Benzoin is often used in aromatherapy blends to support relaxation, uplift the spirit, and bring a gentle sense of grounding—especially during times of stress, fatigue, or emotional heaviness.

Used in the East since ancient times as both a traditional medicine and incense, Benzoin has long been cherished for its comforting aroma and is now a popular ingredient in both aromatherapy and natural perfumery. In perfume blends, it is valued as an excellent base note and fixative, helping to anchor lighter notes and add a smooth, resinous sweetness that extends the life of a blend.

Handling Note:

Because Benzoin Absolute is naturally thick and sticky, it’s easiest to work with when gently warmed. We recommend placing the bottle in warm water (not on direct heat) until the absolute begins to liquefy, making it easier to dispense and blend.

Traditional Uses: incense, perfumery fixative, comforting aromatherapy, uplifting emotional support, grounding blends.


Ways to Use Benzoin Absolute:

Cozy Diffuser Blend

Add 1–2 drops to a diffuser with Frankincense or Sandalwood for a warm, soothing atmosphere.

Natural Perfume Fixative

Use a small amount in perfume blends to add sweetness and help anchor and extend top notes.

Cautions:

May be a skin irritant. Dilute well for topical use. Perform a patch test prior to topical use, especially for sensitive skin. If pregnant, nursing, or under a doctor’s care, consult your healthcare professional before use.
