Wildcrafted White Pine CO2 Total Extract | Pinus Strobus

Experience the crisp, refreshing essence of North American evergreen forests with our Wildcrafted White Pine CO₂ Total Extract, derived from Pinus strobus, commonly known as Eastern White Pine.

Native to eastern North America, Pinus strobus is a majestic evergreen conifer admired for its soft, slender needles, distinctive resinous character, and fresh woodland aroma.

Produced through supercritical carbon dioxide (CO₂) extraction, this botanical extract captures a complex range of aromatic compounds naturally present in White Pine plant material.

Unlike traditional steam-distilled essential oils, CO₂ total extraction can recover a broader spectrum of botanical constituents, including volatile aromatic compounds and heavier, less volatile fractions. The resulting extract may offer a richer and more layered representation of the original plant material.

Its invigorating coniferous character makes White Pine CO₂ Total Extract an appealing ingredient for botanical perfumery, forest-inspired fragrance compositions, aromatic balms, and specialty cosmetic formulations.
