What elemi is
Elemi is a tree resin from the Philippines that smells fresh, lemony and peppery, with a light, balsamic, incense-like character. Perfumers use elemi in the top and heart to give a resinous, citrus-like sparkle, and it also supports the base as a light fixative, helping to hold brighter notes together. It blends with incense, frankincense, woods, spices and citrus.
