Description Extracted from the branches and leaves of the Douglas Fir tree, Douglas Fir oil has a piney aroma with a sweet and refreshing lemon-scented note, which helps create an energizing and breathable atmosphere through diffusion. When used topically, Douglas Fir essential oil can improve the appearance of skin by offering surface cleansing properties. Douglas Fir essential oil is almost entirely composed of chemical constituents with a monoterpene backbone. Like its piney relatives such as Siberian Fir essential oil, Black Spruce essential oil, and Cypress essential oil, the compounds a-pinene and δ-3-carene provide a stimulating aroma, surface cleansing properties, and soothing benefits to the skin. Of all the fir essential oils, Douglas Fir essential oil is particularly known for its aroma and use in massage.
