Copaiba Balsam Essential Oil (Copaifera Officinalis [Balsam Copaiba] Resin) is a remarkable extract derived from the wild trees of South American rainforests, particularly those found in Brazil, Colombia, Peru, and Venezuela. This resin is harvested through a sustainable tapping process, reminiscent of how rubber trees are tapped, allowing for a pure and potent oil. Although often referred to as balsam, it is technically not a true balsam, yet it excels in both aromatic and therapeutic applications. Historically valued as a fixative in perfumes and colognes, Copaiba Balsam Oil offers a unique blend of soothing properties and fragrant notes, making it a versatile ingredient in cosmetic formulations and aromatic blends.
