Óleo de Mata

Portuguese to English Other Botany
Mais uma vez, peço a vossa ajuda. Já procurei na IATE, no Merrian Webster e fiz várias pesquisas e não consigo perceber o que será óleo de mata. "Com as bagas e a resina ( da aroeira) fervidas em azeite e depois coadas fazia-se o óleo da mata para usar externamente no alívio de dores reumáticas".
Mais uma vez, grata pela ajuda.

agree Lívia Pinheiro : Aroeiras ocorrem tb no cerrado, então eu retiraria o (rain) e deixaria só " forest balm"

Thanks Lívia - the only reticence I have about "Forest Balm" is product name appropriation
