Copaiba balm Fragrances

The perfume note of Copaiba Balm, derived from the resin of the copaiba tree, offers a unique, slightly sweet and woody aroma that captures the essence of this tropical rainforest tree. It unfolds with a gentle, balsamic scent that's reminiscent of the rich, sticky resin dripping from the tree bark. This initial resinous warmth is deepened by a soft, woody undertone, echoing the enduring strength of the tree itself. As the scent lingers, it reveals faintly spicy and honey-like nuances, adding complexity and a touch of the exotic. The Copaiba Balm note infuses fragrances with a sense of serene depth and tropical warmth, its scent capturing the untouched beauty and primal allure of the rainforest.
