Rare Opportunity for a serum scented with an Essential Oil that is Only Distilled by a Handfull of Artisans in a Small Region of the United States. This is Not Produced at Scale Like Many Other Essential Oils!

Scent Description & Species Background:

Pinyon Pine essential oil (Piñon named by the Spanish Conquistadors) is a limited edition, exquisite artisan distillation of needles and twigs ethically harvested from wild grown Pinus edulis trees. This gorgeous specialty offering; displays smooth, fresh conifer and woody/resinous body notes with a peculiar butter-like back note and extremely fine, peachy pineapple/floral top notes of delicate diffusiveness. A mild terpenic note mingles with the peachy pineapple/floral aspect throughout its long dry down. The care, respect and skills employed in the harvesting and extraction processes are clearly reflected in the quality of this unique plant essence.

Pinyon Pine trees grow at elevations between 3,000 – 10,000 feet and are native to the Four Corners area of the US – Utah, Arizona, Colorado, and New Mexico with a range that has expanded into the surrounding states and Northern Mexico. These slow-growing trees are commonly over 750 years old, with some reaching the age of 900 years or more.

Coniferous trees in general – Pine, Spruce, Fir – are the guardian trees of our planet with their specific refreshing, cleansing constituents. The primary components present in Pinyon Pine are a group of monoterpene hydrocarbons and bornyl acetate with many other constituents in smaller amounts. In the higher boiling fractions, chemists have been able to identify ethyl caprylate, a compound responsible for the characteristic fruity fragrance of Pinyon Pine.
