Fir needle essential oil is distilled to capture the scent of a snow-quiet forest: crisp, resinous, and evergreen. Softer and jammier than pine, it carries a sweet balsamic depth that lingers, like freshly cut boughs brought indoors on a winter afternoon.
Jammy, not sharp Softer and sweeter than pine, with a balsamic depth that lingers after the first crisp, green impression.

Frequently Asked Questions
How pure is your fir needle essential oil? ▾
Our fir needle oil is sold as botanical grade. If you want specifics about what is in a given size, please contact us and we will gladly help. You can also review our published Certificate of Analysis before you order.
Which fir is this, and how is it different from pine? ▾
We list this oil by its common name, fir needle, and do not specify a botanical species. Compared with pine, it reads softer, sweeter, and jammier, with a balsamic depth that lingers. If species details matter to your formula, contact us before ordering.
What does fir needle oil smell like, and what does it blend with? ▾
Expect a crisp, green, sweetly resinous scent, like fresh-cut boughs. It pairs naturally with cedarwood, orange, frankincense, and peppermint, and it forms the backbone of winter-lodge style blends. Lavender is another easy partner when you want a softer, rounder result.
How do I dilute fir needle oil for skin use? ▾
Dilute to between 0.5% and 2% in a carrier oil. That works out to roughly 3 to 12 drops per ounce of carrier. Patch test a small area first, keep the oil away from eyes, and store your finished blend somewhere cool and dark.
What sizes do you offer, and do you sell wholesale? ▾
There are nine sizes, from 0.5 oz to 400 lbs: 0.5 oz, 1 oz, 2 oz, 4 oz, 8 oz, 16 oz, 5 lbs, 25 lbs, and 400 lbs. Wholesale and bulk buyers are welcome, and every size comes from the same standard.
Does the price per ounce drop as the size goes up? ▾
Yes. Per-ounce cost falls steadily with each step up in size, so larger containers are the better value for regular use. The largest size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the smallest bottle.
Is lab documentation available with bulk orders? ▾
Yes. Every size, including the bulk sizes, is covered by the site's published Certificate of Analysis. If you need anything further for your records or your customers, please contact us before ordering so we can sort it out first.
Which size should I choose? ▾
Start with 0.5 oz or 1 oz to learn the scent and test a recipe. The 2 oz to 4 oz range suits regular candle, diffuser, or cleaner batches. Makers who pour often tend to prefer 8 oz or 16 oz, while 5 lbs and up suits production runs.
How fast do orders ship? ▾
Orders ship within 1 to 2 business days. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs and up may need extra handling, so allow a little more time for those. Checkout is handled through our Shopify store, where you can pick your size and complete your purchase.
What role does fir play in winter-lodge style blends? ▾
Fir is the backbone of the winter-lodge profile. Its crisp, resinous, evergreen character gives the blend its forest foundation, and its balsamic depth lingers. Cedarwood, orange, frankincense, and peppermint all build on that base, so fir is a natural first oil to reach for in seasonal blends.
