dōTERRA Copaiba Touch - 10ml
dōTERRA Copaiba Touch - 10ml
Copaiba comes from the resin of trees that grow wild across the Amazon basin in Brazil, tapped in much the same way as rubber, then steam distilled. It's one of the higher-yielding resins in aromatherapy, which is part of why it sits at a lower price than other resin oils.
This is the Touch version, already diluted in fractionated coconut oil inside a roll-on bottle, so there's nothing to measure before it goes on skin. The aroma is dry and woody with a faint peppery warmth, quieter and less sweet than resins like myrrh or frankincense.
Copaiba is usually the oil people reach for as a base note under something brighter, rolled onto wrists or pulse points before a citrus or mint oil goes on top.

Common questions
What is Copaiba Touch made from?
Resin tapped from Copaifera trees native to the Amazon basin in Brazil, steam distilled and then diluted in fractionated coconut oil for this roll-on version.
What does Copaiba smell like?
Dry and woody with a faint peppery warmth. It's quieter than resins like myrrh or frankincense, which makes it a good base note rather than the main event.
Do I need to add a carrier oil?
No. Touch versions are already diluted in fractionated coconut oil, so this one is ready to roll straight onto skin.
What does Copaiba blend well with?
Citrus oils such as Wild Orange or Lemon work well on top of it, since Copaiba sits underneath as a quiet base note rather than competing with brighter aromas.
