Product Overview:
Palo Santo, meaning "Holy Wood," is a tree native to the tropical coastal forests of the South Pacific, with Ecuador being the primary source of harvesting today. The oil is extracted from the tree's trunk, a process that can take up to 10 years to yield. The tree itself lives for 80 to 90 years, but due to over-harvesting, only naturally fallen branches are now used for oil production. This sacred tree has been traditionally used by the indigenous people of Ecuador for home perfuming and in shamanic rituals.
 
Palo Santo oil is highly valued for its aromatic properties and its deep cultural significance.
