Collection: Elemi
Elemi (Canarium luzonicum) is a product of a tree that grows in the Philippines. It is a type of resin from the same family to which myrrh, opoponax, and incense also belong. Its essential oil is a valued perfume material and one of the cheaper materials from this group. Its fragrant note is somewhat different from other resins, spicy with hints of pine and lemon.
Elemi wood releases its resin in drops – tears that become hard in contact with the air and acquire its characteristic smell and shape. Then, by steam distillation of the resin, Elemi’s essential oil is obtained and used in the perfume industry. Unlike incense, elemi surprises with its exotic and refreshing fresh lemon aroma. Resinous perfume materials usually have depth and fullness, but Elemi differs from its relatives here as well. It is translucent, bright, and fresh, and even the product in the form of oil is less dense and more translucent than other resin-derived oils.
