Tincture of Propolis

Description

A strong tincture of pure Ontario Bee Propolis for Perfume, incense and medicine. 1:3 Ratio

A fragrant, black and brittle compound at room temperature, Propolis is a fragrant resinous material bees produce for keeping the hive septic and germ-free. Created from the resin of different plants by the bees through the seasons, each batch of Propolis varies both in its scent and its chemical profile depending on the season, the local and plant material that is available to them.

This Propolis tincture has a sweet, warm, musky animalic, resinous amber-like fragrance with hints of Molasses and Black Cherry. Its scent is reminiscent of Poplar Bud resin, which often makes up a good portion of the Bee’s building material for Propolis. It blends nicely with many essential oils, perfume and incense materials.

Propolis can be used both powdered, in its raw form, and blended as a tincture with other ingredients, in a wide variety of incense types. A small perfume sprayer/mister can be used for even dispersal. It’s robust amber, musk-like scent transforms single ingredient and compound incense blends with an unexpected rich exotic touch. The raw Bee Propolis can be burned directly on the heater or the coals or added to a blend.

Traditionally used to prevent and treat sore throats and oral infections. The raw resin chewed and the tincture applied to the mouth/throat are common treatments in cultures around the world.
This is a 1:3 tincture using “Spirytus”, an excellent quality 76% filtered grain spirit. Blended with tincture of Myrrh one could create a unique medicine for general oral care, (And a pretty amazing fragrance!!).

Though it is already a lovely and complex odiferous material in its fresh state, like many resin based tinctures, it will age and mature, become richer and more complex in its fragrance with time.

It is available in 5 Ml., 10 Ml. and 30 Ml. drip-cap bottles, not a rubber bulb dripper as in photos.
