Frequently asked questions

Some questions and answers are automatically generated.

How does this scent compare to Black Storax?

This Storax Formosana lacks the sharp styrene notes found in Black Storax and North American varieties. Reviewers note it has a softer, more nuanced profile with fruity and floral notes alongside the amber-honey base, making it less cloying and more versatile for blending.

Does the scent last long when applied?

Yes, reviewers report the scent lasts quite a while, though it has an elusive quality where it comes and goes throughout wear. One reviewer describes it as oscillating between spicy amber and fruity notes rather than remaining constant.

Is this good for perfume making?

Yes. Reviewers specifically use it as a benzoin substitute in perfumes, praising it as an essential oil alternative because unlike benzoin resinoid, it doesn't make perfumes sticky or impede scent diffusion. Many note it blends easily with other oils.

What does it smell like on first opening?

One detailed reviewer describes an initial hit of cinnamon-scented notes with a spicy amber base, alongside a sweet fuel-like quality reminiscent of palo santo—not kerosene-like, but with that warm, slightly fumy character.

Is this accurate to the product description?

Reviewers confirm it matches the description very closely. Several note it's 'true to item description and better than imagined,' with the amber, honey, floral, and fruity notes all present as described.

Does it blend well with other oils?

Yes, reviewers report it's very versatile and blends beautifully with almost anything they've tried, making it a flexible base or supporting note for custom blends.

Known for its grounding and calming effects, Formosa Storax has a lovely, warm honey-amber aroma with fruity, spicy, floral notes not present in Black Storax, giving it extra depth and vibrancy. Like its cousin Liquidambar orientalis, Black Storax, it has an amber-type aroma that is Balsamic, warm, sweet and spicy. It is both comforting and inspiring, warm and inviting.

This Storax does not have the sharp Styrene notes that distinguish our North American Liquidambar styractiflua resin. It has a lovely Amber heart and soft floral fruity notes that blend easily with most other essential oils.
