Peru Balsam Absolute Resinoid PC, Colourless

Original designation: Pérou RDE ABS PC incolore

Myroxylon balsamum var. pereirae

A colourless Peru balsam extract suggests the familiar vanilla-cinnamon warmth and soft leather of the balsam in a visually refined form. It is a graceful way to imagine balsamic depth inside lighter-coloured compositions.
