CO2 extracted Liquidambar orientalis Styrax
(Resin of Rose Maloes, Oriental Sweetgum)

"Revive and Join Fragrance"

Su He Xiang's intense, long lasting fragrance is complex, penetrating and heady; resinous, with balsamic, leathery sweetness and sharp, terpenic notes. It vibrates and awakens all of the upper orifices (sense organs) and concentrates in the forehead. Our Su He Xiang essential oil is CO2 extracted from the resin of the bark of the Liqiudamber Orientalis, a deciduous tree native to the eastern Mediterranean region. The penetrating and warm qualities of Su He Xiang strongly clear away turbidity and phlegm.

The classic text, Ben Jing Feng Yuan, describes it this way: Su He Xiang "is created by the accumulation of the Qi of various fragrances; it ventilates every yin organ and orifice and clears away every type of abnormal Qi. Whenever phlegm accumulates and Qi collapses, this must first be used to open and guide." And, "For the miasmic damp Qi of mountain mists which invades the channels and collaterals causing intermittent cramps and spasms, Styrax is imperative."

As an aid to revive consciousness and awaken the spirit in the in the case of coma, wind stroke or phlegm collapse, and for childhood convulsions or seizures, Su He Xiang oil can be applied directly to acupoints such as jing well points, using one drop for several points.

Pharmacological research has shown that the essential oil of Su He Xiang has strong anti-fungal properties.
