Benzoin is quite an unusual oil. Rather than being distilled or cold pressed like the majority of essential oils, it is collected from the balsamic resin of the benzoin tree, native to Thailand.
The resin hardens upon exposure to air and sunlight and is then extracted via solvent extraction, where the excess material is dissolved to leave behind the essential oil.
Also known by the botanical name Styrax Benzoe, the rich, honey-like smell of benzoin has made it an attractive oil scent-wise for centuries, despite its unique extraction method.
Benzoin has an almost treacle-like consistency and must be heated before use to facilitate the flow of the oil.
