Pine essential oil is extracted by steam distillation from the twigs and needles of the Scotch Pine (Pinus Sylvestris). It is 100% bio-certified and complies with BDS standard ISO 16128-1:2018.

The aromatic molecules in Scotch Pine oil are pinenes (ά and β-Pinene) and Limonene. Pinenes, as the name suggests, give the fresh resinous-balsamic smell that we call pine and fir trees.
