Madagascar Elemi Hydrosol is collected during a small-batch, artisan distillation of Madagascar Elemi, Canarium madagascariensis, the unique Elemi tree that grows only in Madagascar.
Madagascar Elemy Hydrosol has the lovely musky, fruity, lemony, amber aroma of the fresh Madagascar Elemi resin.
It is packaged sterile in bottles with screw-on caps. Once opened refrigerate any unused hydrosol since no preserving agents have been added.

Madagascar Elemi is a rare type of Elemi found on the Island of Madagascar off the Coast of East Africa. It has a richer, more complex scent than the Philipines Elemi we find in mainstream aromatherapy and is used locally for incense and skincare.
Please note: There may be droplets of essential oil in the hydrosol. Make sure to keep it away from eyes and mucous membranes.
This product can be diluted with water for many applications while retaining its aromatic and therapeutic qualities.
