Labdanum Concrete on Residue, Super

Original designation: Labdanum CTE sur Residu Super

Cistus ladanifer

Bottom and residue-derived labdanum materials emphasize the darkest strata of the gum: smoke, leather, tobacco, earth and animalic amber. Their beauty is geological—less golden surface, more buried heat.

Extraction & expression

Fractionation isolates a particular register of a larger material. Heads and terpene cuts tend toward lift; hearts focus the central identity; body and bottom cuts gather weight, shadow and less-volatile depth. A residue is the remaining, lower-volatility register after another separation—valuable for shadow, texture and unusual weight.
