Description: The Copaiba Balsam Resin is extracted from the wild growing trees. They are found mainly in the South American rain forests - particularly Brazil, Columbia, Peru and Venezuela. The resin is harvested by tapping or drilling holes into the trunk of the tree. In this way it is much like how rubber trees are tapped. Although this resin is often referred to as balsam, it is not a true balsam.

Consistency: Medium to Heavy

Note: Base

Strength of Aroma: Medium

Blends well with: Copaiba Balsam Essential Oil blends well with oils from the spice family, oils from the floral family, and essential oils with Oriental bases. They also work well with the aphrodisiac oils – Rose, Jasmine, Sandalwood, and Frankincense. It can also support the softer qualities of oils such as Ylang-ylang or Vanilla.

Aromatic Scent: Copaiba Balsam Essential Oil has a warm, honey-like scent. It is rich and pleasant; it is easily identifiable as a base note.

History: Copaiba Balsam Oil has been used historically as a fixative in perfumes, colognes, detergents and soaps.

Cautions: May cause possible dermal sensitization.. Avoid use during pregnancy.

I don't like my copaiba balsam, it really smell like pencil... I've made soy candles with cedarwood (Atlas), not a good combination, the pencil scent is too overpowering... 'll try with vanilla or flower EO but I am not convinced...

I love this oil - it's so powerful, yet complex. Great fixative too! I blended it with peppermint to begin with and it's a keeper!

This EP is my secret touch for my Chai latte blend! Use 50% of copaiba, add cinnamon leaf EO, anise star EO , clove EO and a touch of ginger EO and voilà! A fantastique chai blend for your soap!

Beautifully balanced earthy scent, this is one of the very best Copaiba Balsams I have tried in my Aromatherapy practice. Brings in a warm base note that pulls others together nicely.
