Organic essential oil SILVER FIR is obtained by steam distillation of silver fir needles – Abies alba. It comes into Amon & Anis bottles directly from the pristine silver fir forests of Bulgaria. This essential oil is certified organic & food grade – Bio Aroma.
The fresh scent of silver fir needles is one of those classic scents, along with cinnamon, that cheers us up during the festive Christmas season. In winter, it refreshes and cleanses our home with its ability to move stagnant energy. The most common way is to evaporate it in a diffuser. We can also enjoy it in herbal syrups or candies, which will further relax and strengthen the respiratory system. Anyone who likes to pamper themselves with a hot sauna in winter should not forget about silver fir essential oil. It is also recommended for massage, since it has a beneficial effect on circulation, muscles and joints.
