Natural Antiseptic and Analgesic: Elemi Oil is renowned for its natural antiseptic and analgesic properties that can help eliminate bacteria and promote a sense of well-being.

DESCRIPTION

Scientifically known as Canarium commune, Elemi releases its exotic resin when its leaves unfurl, akin to its aromatic companions Frankincense and Muhuhu. The resulting yellow resin, redolent with a robust woody scent solidifies upon exposure to the air. This resin, locally known as pili, becomes a precious export from the Philippines, embodying centuries of historical significance and traditional craftsmanship.

Today, Elemi Essential Oil's enchanting woody scent finds its place in contemporary rituals, offering a sensory journey that transcends the ordinary.
