Extraction

Elemi essential oil is obtained by steam distillation of the resin resulting from the solidification of pathological exudate. It appears as a colorless (or vaguely yellowish) liquid with a characteristic fresh scent with spicy-balsamic undertones.

Properties

Non-toxic and non-irritating, elemi essential oil has antiseptic, healing, expectorant, stimulant, and deodorant properties.
In ancient times, it was an important aromatic raw material (even used by the Egyptians in embalming).
In the recent past, this essential oil was used—with excellent results—to treat infected wounds and skin inflammation in general.
It blends well with myrrh absolute as well as the essential oils of agarwood, cinnamon, cistus, copaiba, frankincense, lavender, olibanum, opoponax, rosemary, and sage.

Uses

Elemi essential oil is currently used as a fixative in fragrances that deodorize soaps, detergents, and cosmetics, as well as (occasionally) as a flavoring ingredient in the alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverage industry.
