I really like this oil. It smells like the woods behind our house. I use it in soaps and massage blends. It is surprisingly versatile.

This is literally Christmas in a bottle!! It's perfect for room sprays.. especially for a 'Christmas in July" party. Your guests won't have a clue how you did it without actually having the tree :)

I am in love with this oil. It smells exactly like the Christmas trees I've always had, and like the forests of the Canadian Rockies. It's wonderful diffused with spruce and pine--smells just like the forest!

Great oil, I've received 15ml last week and I'm already halfway through, I want to use it in everything. It's the scent I have in mind when I think of fir. It's great for joint pain.

I'm a Forestry student at the Univerity of British Columbia and we study all sorts of trees....obviously, haha! Anyhoo, I got this Balsam Fir oil because I thought that this tree had such a wonderful and distinctive sent. This oil smells EXACTLY like the tree itself! There is no weird chemical smell or anything. This oil is so stunning! And super duper strong too. Holy smokes this oil is strong. Its a big bang for your buck! Which is good if you're a student! P.S. Also, I was watching Fraiser the other night and Fraiser recieved an invitation in the mail to an exclusive spa. Fraiser smelled the invitation and said "Ahhhh, the manly aroma of Balsam Fir...". Now I think of that everytime I smell it. Oh man, I love Fraiser....haha!

This oil is lovely, very high quality. I often prefer it to the strong, almost ammonia-like scent pine can have. It absolutely is reminiscent of a walk in the forest and I love it in all of my cold, cough and immune blends.

MMMm, tree! Actually I blend this eo with other eo's to make manly exotic scents love it!

Another of my favorites. This is a wonderful Balsam Fir. Deeply coniferous with lemon and pine notes. This oil is very grounding and emotionally stabilizing; great for meditation blends. Also good for respiratory problems and as an antiseptic.

I adore fir balsam, and make two incenses with it. I find it a very grounding oil used therapeutically, and the thinner consistency than the resin is handy.

Another one of my favorite oils. Makes me think of a walk in the forest. Great in a difuser as natural air freshener and also in melt-and-pour or hot process soaps.
