## About
Free, heady, the freedom of the mountain tops: this is what pine should smell like. If pine has only ever meant bathroom cleaner to you, this oil will change your mind, the way it changed ours.It is distilled from the needles of the Scotch pine, Pinus sylvestris, organically produced and wild-harvested in France. Commercial distillers are apt to label any mix of pine species as Pinus sylvestris, which may be why so much pine oil disappoints; this is true, pure Scotch pine. Refreshing and reviving, it belongs in any pick-me-up blend, like a stroll through a pine forest.DetailsBotanical name: Pinus sylvestrisPlant part: needles, wild-harvestedMethod: steam distillationOrigin: France, organically producedShelf life: about 2 to 3 years after openingHow to useDiffuse it alone or with Eucalyptus and Lavender, or add a few drops with Lemon or Lemon Eucalyptus to a scrub bucket for floors and tubs, and notice what it does to the feeling of a freshly cleaned room. It can irritate the skin, so we prefer it in the air rather than in the bath or on the skin, and it should be avoided by those with allergies. Keep it out of reach of children, and store it in the dark, refrigerated if you can.A forest walk for the days you cannot get to one.
