ABOUT

Propolis is a resinous, balsamic note derived from the substance bees collect from tree buds and sap flows. It exudes a warm, rich aroma with sweet, honeyed facets combined with a slightly medicinal, woody undertone that adds depth and complexity. In perfumery, propolis is valued for its ability to impart a natural, enveloping warmth and a subtle sweetness that enhances oriental and amber compositions, often evoking a cozy, comforting atmosphere reminiscent of a sunlit forest or a beeswax candlelit room.
