About the Oil: Pure essential oil of Douglas fir needle, organically grown in France. This is a beautiful distillation, very fresh! Douglas fir is in a class by itself aromatically. It has unique green and resinous notes not found in other fir or needle oils.

The fir needle oils, and evergreen needle oils in general, are highly prized for their uplifting aroma, yet are grounding and offer purification, should you want to clear the energy or air in a room. Further, fir needle oils share properties of supporting the relief of breathing conditions, opening airways, and having anti-infectious properties for the respiratory system. They are popular in formulas for rheumatic and arthritic conditions, as well as blends for simple aches and pains.

Aroma: Incredibly fresh, rich, with green, sweet resinous notes.

Suggestion: It can easily be used in a diffuser by itself, or blended with other needle oils for a dramatic "deep forest" effect.  Dilute Douglas fir essential oil to less than 10% in your favorite carrier oil and massage into sore muscles and joints.
