Soul-satisfying Black Spruce Essential Oil is a gentle, invigorating evergreen essence steam-distilled from the needles of wild Canadian spruce. Known for its fresh, clean, and subtly sweet woody scent, this oil calms the spirit, clarifies breath, and eases tension of mind and body.
Gentler than many other evergreen oils, Black Spruce is perfect for enhancing meditation, forest-inspired self-care rituals, baths, and diffusers. Historically, it has been used by the Lakota Indians to enhance communication with the Great Spirit, and in Europe and North America as a tonifying, revitalizing essence.
