Pine needles
Pinus sylvestris

Distilled with their young twigs, pine needles yield a fresh, resinous oil. It smells of the forest after rain: green and balsamic, faintly camphoraceous.
What it brings
A crisp, airy freshness of high ground that opens the heart of a woody fragrance and gives it breath.
