At the perfumer’s organ

In the organ, use it to build new-mown hay and meadow accords, enrich fougère warmth and introduce tobacco, tonka and pastoral leather compositions. As base note, it offers signature rather than mere theme.

  • fougère warmth
  • tobacco, tonka and pastoral leather compositions

Extraction & expression

An essence belongs to the more volatile, mobile side of the palette. Depending on the botanical, it may come from distillation or—in explicitly expressed citrus grades—from mechanical pressing, bringing immediacy and lift.
