Tolu balsam (Myroxylon balsamum) ultrasonic extract is a treasure straight from South America, particularly the lush forests of Colombia. Often confused with Peru balsam, it is extracted from the living trunks of the Myroxylon balsamum var. toluiferum tree. Initially, it takes the form of a brownish, sticky, semi-fluid mass, which gradually hardens on contact with air to become solid and brittle. When heated, it becomes malleable again, revealing its full aromatic richness.
Tolu balsam is particularly prized in perfumery for its warm, sweet and slightly spicy scent. A must-have that was missing from Le Sourceur’s collection, we have chosen to offer you this Ultrason for its unique properties and captivating aroma.
Apart from vanilla and benzoin, there are few other ingredients that are as velvety, creamy and indulgent; in other words, balmy. This obvious richness does not overshadow the many diverse undertones that lend great subtlety to this fragrance: sometimes toasted, roasted, like burnt caramel, sometimes more resinous and vegetal, it also becomes slightly woody and leathery at the end of its journey.
Heart
Adds a balmy, vanilla and delicately floral dimension.
Excellent in tandem with a woody note such as Patchouli or Sandalwood Spicatum.
Baume Tolu Ultrasound, with its warm, sweet and slightly spicy fragrance, is a real treasure for soothing and comforting the mind. Its enveloping aroma helps calm restless minds and reduce stress, creating an atmosphere of relaxation and well-being. It also promotes a feeling of emotional comfort, bringing a gentle inner warmth. Its rich and sensual fragrance can also act as a subtle aphrodisiac, delicately stimulating the senses and promoting an intimate and harmonious atmosphere.
