What is Pine?

Pine is derived from evergreen conifer trees of the Pinus genus, found across Europe, Asia, and North America. Pine essential oil is most commonly steam-distilled from pine needles, though pine tree oil may also reference extracts from buds, cones, or resin. In aromatherapy pine is valued for its refreshing, clarifying aroma and its association with outdoor air, resilience, and vitality. Aromatherapy Associates uses Pine to bring freshness, strength, and a sense of natural clarity to blends designed for energy, focus, and restoration.
