It is rich in sesquiterpenes and sesquiterpene alcohols, which provide powerful therapeutic, cosmetic, and wellness benefits. The oil is widely used in cosmetic products, aromatherapy, perfumery, and herbal formulations.
Its warm, woody, balsamic aroma with sweet undertones makes it highly valued in fragrance and wellness industries.
