About

Siberian stone pine needle is the steam-distilled needle oil of Pinus sibirica, a five-needle stone pine of the Russian taiga. It reads woody and piney first, with a dry-balsamic body and a turpentine edge, and a fresh green-citrus top over it.

Scent Profile

Siberian Stone Pine Needle smells woody and piney first, with a dry, balsamic body underneath. A sharp, turpentine-like edge runs through it, closer to raw terpene than to a sweet herbal note. A fresh green top sits over the wood, carried straight from the needle. A light citrus note shows through as well, though it stays faint.

Origin

Pinus sibirica grows wild across Siberia and is the tree whose seeds are sold as cedar nuts. Ecosibir sells a steam-distilled oil from the needles, wild-crafted in Eastern Siberia around the Baikal region. A second Siberian vendor sells the same species distilled from needles and young shoots. The tree is called 'Siberian cedar' in Russian trade copy and 'Siberian pine' in English, and neither name is a cedar. ScenTree's own catalogue states that 'The Siberian pine is a tree of the Pinaceae family and the genus Abies Mill.' and lists Abies sibirica fir needle oil under it. One species over, Pinus cembra, the Swiss stone pine or Zirbe, is sold as 'Pine Oil, Cembra' and is a different species again.

Usage in Perfumery

5 Parfumo placements across 4 brands, none on Fragrantica. The neighbouring one-brand terms scots-pine-needle, swiss-stone-pine-needle, dwarf-pine and siberian-fir-needle were all rejected in the 2026-08-23 bulk pass on attestation alone. This term clears that bar by placement count and by brand count.
