When we talk about balm in perfumery, it is instead the first category mentioned above: that is to say, the powerful odor given off by the resins of conifers. The balms are rather present in the base notes of the perfumes. They are an excellent fixative and give the juice that contains them a smoother, sweeter, and rounder flavor. They are a ubiquitous ingredient in juices belonging to the oriental olfactory family. To obtain a balm, it is advisable to incise the trunk of a tree and to recover the resin which escapes from it. This is then distilled with water vapor, before the balm is extracted by the use of solvents. This traditional manufacturing method is nevertheless very often replaced today by synthetic components,
In perfumes, the main balms currently used are:
- Peruvian balsam with a caramelized, waxy, and leathery scent.
- Tolu balm, mainly produced in Colombia. Its scent is more vanilla and woody.
- Benzoin balm, from Indochina, with a powdery, spicy, milky, and vanilla flavor.
