Self-Care Ritual

A drop in carrier oil over the chest before bed can be a helpful part of a wind-down routine.

From the Misty Highlands of Indochina

A rare conifer whose heartwood breathes ancient calm.

- Fokienia hodginsii grows slowly in the cool mountain forests of Vietnam, Laos and southern China, where its wood has been carved for sacred objects for centuries.

- Local artisans have long valued the heartwood for temple architecture and incense, prized for its enduring warmth and quiet sweetness.

- Steam distillation of the wood releases a creamy, balsamic-woody oil rich in fokienol — a constituent rarely found elsewhere in the plant world.

Lovely "forest scent", my boyfriend liked this oil so much that I had to make him a soap out of it :) very pleasant in the diffuser and e.g. in combination with lavender.
