Resin - Honey Amber - 5gr
$5.49
Description
Amber is a semi-solid mass of tree resins or gums mixed with essential oils, bees wax and fragrant plant powders. It was created as an Ayurvedic formula for stress reduction. In India it is called amber dhoop and is sometimes burned in shrines or applied to the forehead for its calming and meditative qualities. Each amber maker uses a
different (and highly guarded) formula and method of manufacture. For this reason we can not give you an exact ingredient list. However, there are some basic ingredients that are commonly used. These include a resinous base of Styrax tree resin (commonly called benzoin) from the benzoin tree (Styrax benzion or Styrax tokinensis [which is the
more fragrant and finer variety]). This variety has a very aromatic vanilla earth undertone with nice honey like qualities. A little goes a
long way (and we do mean a little--the smallest crumb makes an abundance of smoke). The scent is amazing!
We carry four types of amber:
Golden Amber
Honey Amber
Dark Amber
Celestial Amber
