Odor Description:Sweet-balsamic, ambery, spicy-cinnamic, fruity
In its natural state Tolu Balsam is rock-hard and quite difficult to handle – it fractures like glass in this state – it is produced from Myroxylon balsamum and gives an extremely long-lasting sweet-balsamic note with cinnamic, slightly floral and vanillic qualities. It is an excellent natural fixative, normally used at around 4% of the concentrate for this purpose. Here diluted to 30% in TEC making it an easy-to use pourable liquid that dissolves readily in ethanol.

(myroxylon balsamum, leguminosae).
