Extractions & Uses

Extractions & Uses

Extraction process :

The Siberian pine is a tree with a slow growth that can reach up to 50 meters tall. Its trunk can reach 1 meter in diameter. Its needles are arranged one by one on the twigs which makes it a fir tree rather than a pine tree. The needles contain most of the fragrant principle of the plant.
From June to October, the needle twigs are cut off the tree, while they contain a maximum of essential oil. They are stored in a large container to be brought to the factory. They are dried before they are steam distilled. The extraction is carried out for several hours under pressure and the Pine Siberian essential oil is collected at the end of the process by decantation of the water.
An absolute, more resinous, balsamic and tenacious, can be obtained by a volatile solvent extraction of the same branches.

Uses in perfumery :

Useful in fresh, marine, fougere, woody and masculine notes.

Other comments :

This tree naturally grows in the mountainous regions of Russia. It grows mainly at altitudes between 1900 and 2400 meters. It can withstand temperatures around -58 °F.
The difference between a pine and a fir lies in the arrangement of the needles. If they are tied one by one to the twigs, it's a fir tree. If they are grouped together, it's a pine tree. The Siberian pine is actually a fir tree.
