When I was a kid, I remember that I felt the feeling of Christmas as soon as we would bring live Christmas tree into the house,  actually it was the smell of Christmas tree that gave me that comforting and festive feeling. Whether it was blue spruce, silver fur or just simple pine tree, it filled our house with its’ soothing and pungent smell almost instantly. For the last few years, I have been a big supporter of saving trees and not hurting any living plants, so of course every Christmas, my family keeps using the same artificial tree. It saves money, saves trees and just makes me feel like I’m doing something good for the planet.
Nevertheless, I still want the scent of Christmas in my home. And that’s when I turn to my friends – essential oils,  all over again. You won’t believe how easy it is to have your home smelling like a pine forest with few drops of various essential oils from pine family. Should you want to spice it up you can also add other scents like Cinnamon and Clove. So here are few holiday essential oils that will make your guests wonder and ask: “What smells so heavenly?”
Black Spruce (Picea Mariana) essential oil is definitely my favorite one. It has very warm and fresh scent. Spruce essential oil is also very calming to the nervous system and helps to support respiratory system. So there you have it, pleasure and health in the bottle. Silver Fir or Fir Needle (Abies siberica) is another very delicate essential oil. It has very pleasant, earthy and woodsy scent. Most of Fir Needle essential oil comes from beautiful and freezing Siberia in Russia. This essential oil will add a fresh and strong note into any essential oil blend, especially those blends that are intended for diffusing. Fir oil also has great therapeutic properties, which may help to ease muscle and joint pain as well as have a mild antiviral effect and help with flu and stuffed nose.
Another one of my favorites is Pine (Pinus sylvestris) essential oil. I always add it into my Christmas diffusing blends along with Spruce and Fir Needle. It really brings together the whole “pine forest” smell into the room. Its’ aroma always gives me a cozy, supportive and calm feeling, whenever I feel rundown, weak and tired.  I guess it comes from the whole energy of the pine tree, which is big, tall and mighty. Whenever I hug a pine tree I feel like I’m getting some of the forest wisdom from it's mighty trunk. Pine essential oil also serves as mild analgesic, antiseptic, antiviral and antifungal.
All these oils will work great in blend together to make your home smell like Christmas and hopefully protect you from viruses and colds.
