Greek mythology tells the tale of seven sisters who turned into weeping willows after the death of their brother Phaeton when he crashed the chariot belonging to his  father Helios, the sun god. Ever since, the sisters shed their eternal tears, which turn into drops of amber as soon as they touch the earth.

Amber Oil Origin & Characteristics

However in reality, amber is a fossil resin from the pine tree Pinus Succinifera. The secreted resin, which petrifies over time, is called amber. The main source of amber is the Baltic Sea region. Traditionally, amber was popular in many cultures because of its golden colour, it is soft and therefore easy to reprocess into beads, pendants or figurines. It is also known to have been used as a means of payment in ancient times. The shades of amber can range from golden brown to orange, yellow, red, green and even white.

Amber oil is extracted from the fossil resin by hexane distillation. In a nutshell, this extraction process involves treating the raw material with a solvent after which the oil is recovered by evaporation and condensation. This provides the deep gold-coloured amber oil with its sweet, sometimes slightly woody scent and a citrus-like undertone.

Amber oil is similar in composition and properties to other essential oils obtained from coniferous trees, mainly containing organic compounds that are naturally present in fossil resin. The constituents of amber oil include dozens of different terpenes, terpene derivatives and other hydrocarbon compounds, such as caparratriene, derivatives of azulene, aromadendrene, longipinene, borneol, camphor, isolongifolol, thunbergol and fenchol. Some of those volatile compounds are responsible for the anti-inflammatory and antibacterial effects of amber oil. 

Since the concentration of compounds in amber oil is considerable, and they have a high degree of biological activity, it is strongly discouraged to apply amber oil directly to the skin unless diluted, and should not be taken orally.
