Palo Santo Essential Oil
Palo santo essential oil is derived from the palo santo tree, which bears the scientific name Bursera graveolens. It is native to Central and South America.
Unlike many other essential oils that come from common plants and herbs, palo santo trees are considered sacred by many different cultures and nations due to the historic importance of the tree’s wood in religious traditions.
It is originally from the dry tropical forests on the coast of the South Pacific, Ecuador is the main country where this tree is found. It can take up to 10 years to produce the oil and to get concentrated in the interior of the tree trunk. Only tree branches that fall naturally from the ground are used to make this oil. The average life of the tree of Palo Santo is between 80 and 90 years.
