Berjé Inc BOIS DE ROSE OIL

Berjé Inc BOIS DE ROSE OIL is obtained by the steam distillation of leaves and twigs of the Aniba rosaeodora tree. This oil carries a sweet and floral odor that is unmistakably resemblant to its more traditional bark-distilled material. Unlike previous iterations of this oil, Berjé's Bois de Rose is grown using natural and sustainable methods, providing an incredibly fragrant and linalool-rich product without compromising the plant's heartwood. In fragrance, Bois de Rose Oil is famous for its refreshingly floral and sweet-spicy aroma. It is commonly used in soaps and perfumes to enhance other floral top notes such as lilac and neroli.

    BOTANICAL NAME

    • Aniba rosaeodora

    AROMA & FLAVOR

    • The tight regulatory controls and sustainability issues facing Bois de Rose Oil make it a fitting illustration of the difficulties of sourcing natural ingredients today. The nearly eight-fold increase in prices of Bois de Rose since 1999 has put a significant strain on the costs of existing formulations and restricts its use in new natural products. The true threat of this dwindling availability is that this well-loved ingredient for which a faithful natural reproduction is nearly impossible might fall out of use. In order to keep Bois de Rose Oil part of the perfumer’s palette, Berjé carries a Bois de Rose Oil distilled from the leaves and stems of the tree rather than the heartwood. This adaptation spares the individual trees, limits the regulatory effort involved in production, and maintains a comparable Bois de Rose Oil for continued use by future generations of perfumers.
