Scotch Pine Essential Oil: Uses, Benefits, and Blends

Let the fresh and fragrant scent of ’s Scotch Pine Essential Oil whisk you away to the forests of Hungary. The outdoorsy scent of Pine is perfect for both air fresheners and cleaning products, helping to stimulate the mind and rejuvenate the spirit at the same time. Pine Oil’s disinfecting properties mean it is an effective cleaning agent in its own right, often found in sprays, wood polishes, and multipurpose cleaners.

The essence of Pine is extracted from the needles of the Pinus Sylvestris tree. Also referred to as the Scotch, or Baltic Pine, this evergreen coniferous tree is native to Eurasia. The Scotch Pine can live for hundreds of years, with the oldest on record being a 760-year-old tree in Lapland, Finland. 

Historically speaking, the Pine tree has been used by Native Americans for hundreds of years. They drank the needles and bark (which are full of vitamin C) in tea to both prevent scurvy and aid respiratory symptoms and even stuffed needles in mattresses to help repel insects. Today, Pine Oil is now most common cleaning product.
