Peru Balsam – Bulk Supply for Pharmaceutical, Cosmetic & Aromatic Applications

Product Overview

Peru Balsam (Myroxylon balsamum var. pereirae) is a natural balsamic resin obtained from trees native to Central America, especially El Salvador. Known for its sweet, vanilla-like, and cinnamon fragrance, Peru Balsam has been used for centuries in traditional medicine, perfumery, and cosmetics. It is rich in cinnamic acid, benzoic acid, and essential oils, making it highly valued for its antimicrobial, wound-healing, and soothing properties. Today, it is a key ingredient in ointments, cough syrups, perfumes, and skincare formulations worldwide.
