Its occurrences are in South America, Asia and West Africa. Tonka Extract organic essential oil from Primavera comes from Brazil. Tonka extract is obtained from the fruits and beans. Traditionally, tonka beans are fermented in rum and then air-dried. Tonka beans are used as a spice, for desserts, in Christmas bakery (stollen) and as a smoking substance.

About 50 kg beans make 1 liter of oil.

Tonka is also found as an essential oil in perfumes – especially men’s perfumes.

The typical scent, which is reminiscent of bitter almond and vanilla, brings back fond memories and has a relaxing and calming effect. Tonka essential oil is characterized by its coumarin content, which gives the oil its typical spicy scent. Coumarins also give woodruff its typical spring and summer scent, which is why the tonka scent can also evoke memories of happy summer days, flower meadows and hay. As an ingredient in body oils, the oil imparts a soothing, sensual fragrance.

The coumarins are also decisive for the mentally relaxing, calming and anxiety-reducing effect of the oil. The oil also has a gentle regulating effect on the serotonin balance, which is why it has a sleep-promoting effect. For psychosomatic pain, a body rub with tonka extract can have a pain-relieving effect.

For a relaxing, cozy atmosphere, you can mix tonka with jasmine or neroli. If you are planning dream trips, meditation sessions, Reiki or other relaxing exercises, you can combine Tonkaessenz very well with fine floral scents.
