Origin

Dragon's Blood is a natural resin obtained from the sap of various Dracaena and Daemonorops species, primarily sourced in Southeast Asia, Africa, and the Canary Islands. The resin is collected by making incisions in the bark or fruit, then purified and sometimes powdered for perfumery use.

Usage in Perfumery
