Derived from ancient pine trees, amber gives off a gorgeous earthy and woody aroma. One of the beauties about this essential oil is its ability to work with other scents – which is why you’ll find it in so many of our scented candles.

Amber is also known to bring a whole lots of health benefits with it too. From skincare to spicing up our love lives – there’s a lot to like about this scent.

If forest walks and putting up your Christmas tree are two of your favourite things about the season, you’ll love the fragrance of pine. While it may appear to be a fairly powerful scent, it can actually be used safely for a wide variety of medical purposes.

Pine is often used in skincare products and can also be used to boost the metabolism, and help with stress disorders and respiratory problems.
