GUAIACWOOD = liquid gold
Guaiacwood has been used for centuries in meditation practices and wellness ceremonies by Native Americans. Guaiacwood is often used in perfumery and skincare products.
The oil is steam-distilled from the heartwood of the Bulnesia sarmientoi tree. It is one of the densest woods in the world - one log will burn through the night! When the trees are initially cut they have a deep blue color inside that is from the concentrated essential oils as they oxidize from air exposure.
Guaiacwood essential oil has an earthy, grounding aroma with a subtle sweetness. The Guaiacwood is blended with Fractionated Coconut Oil and can be used both topically and aromatically. Its woody scent provides a calming, tranquil atmosphere.
