FAQ
What is the difference between Scots pine and black spruce in diffusion?
Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris) is more resinous and Mediterranean. Black spruce (Picea mariana) is more boreal-woody thanks to its bornyl acetate. Both are excellent in coniferous diffusion and complement each other perfectly for a complete forest accord.
Can Scots pine irritate the respiratory tract in diffusion?
In moderate quantity (4-6 drops, 20-30 minutes), it is well tolerated. Pine monoterpenes can be irritating in prolonged diffusion or at high doses in a confined space. Always diffuse in a well-ventilated space.
Where does the Scots pine used for the EO come from?
Mainly from Eastern Europe (Russia, Poland, Scandinavia) where the Pinus sylvestris forests are the most extensive. France (Landes) also produces pine, with a slightly different biochemical profile.
