Amyris wood was historically valued for its high oil content, making it an excellent firewood choice. Beyond its use as a fuel source, the wood's pleasant aroma and potential therapeutic properties were recognized, leading to its cultivation and essential oil production.

Excellent
Needed for skin care products. Good quality
Immediate stress relief
The relaxing effect of this oil is so quick and strong, I immediately get a sense of calm as soon as the diffuser starts going.
Sweet fragrance
I find that usually oils that help with congestion are very minty and strong - like peppermint, spearmint, and so on. Amyris oil however, is really good for congestion but has a sweet scent, almost like vanilla, which is heaps better than the minty alternatives.
