Palo santo is an amazing essential oil, but blending with it can be a bit tricky. It has a tenacious scent that is resinous, sweet, and woody all at the same time, with hints of citrus notes that weave in and out of the complex aroma. Palo santo oil is almost a blend in of itself, which makes it a beautiful addition to personal perfumes, energy or space work, and body care products.
Once distilled, this oil is comprised of at least 50% limonene, the same constituent found in most citrus oils. Palo santo is considered calming and grounding, yet energetic, and is associated with the first and seventh chakras. This dual use fits perfectly with its complex aroma.
When working with palo santo essential oil, we recommend blending in a well-ventilated space. This oil has a very strong aroma. It blends well with resin-derived oils like frankincense and myrrh, citrus oils, and florals like lavender and helichrysum. The blends below can be multiplied as needed and added directly to your favorite essential oil diffuser or incorporated into a facial toner or energetic room spray. Follow our helpful essential oil dilution guide to safely incorporate your favorite blend into the recipe of your choice.
The directions are incredibly simple. Make one or all four blends the same way. All you need to do is change up the ingredients within!
