Warm, resinous, and profoundly spiritual, Palo Santo (Holy Wood) is a sacred oil distilled from the aged heartwood of Bursera graveolens trees. Ours is sourced from ethically fallen wood gathered in Peru and Ecuador, then steam-distilled to capture the pure, smoky-wood sweetness that defines its spiritual signature.
Many Palo Santo oils are over-harvested or extracted from live trees, compromising both potency and ecological integrity. Our oil is slow-distilled from wood aged for a minimum of 3 years, in alignment with local ceremonial practices and forest protection standards.
Traditional and Spiritual Use Used for millennia by Indigenous South American tribes to purify the air, protect sacred space, and deepen connection with spirit. Burned or diffused to clear negative energy and invoke grounded awareness.
