A warm, rooty, resinous distillate-extract with quiet strength.
Sourced from old-growth roots cultivated in the misted forests of the Changbai Mountains, this ginseng essential oil captures the plant’s deep, earthy soul. The aroma opens with dry roots and forest humus, unfolds to bittersweet spice and faint cocoa/tobacco nuances, and settles into a calm, ambered warmth—bridging fine perfumery and aromatherapy with grounded elegance.
