Original designation: Bois de Siam ESS
Fokienia hodginsii
Siam wood brings a mellow, resin-softened timber effect—creamy cedar, faint smoke and warm earth rather than sharp pencil shavings. It gives woody perfumes the polished depth of an old aromatic cabinet.

In perfumery vocabulary, Siam Wood Essence is associated with creamy wood, cedar-like, smoky, balsamic, earthy and softly spicy. Its creative role is a deep base-note material with architectural presence, giving structure and character to complex accords.
In the organ, use it to build build elegant oriental woods, enrich soften cedar structures and introduce support incense. As base note, it offers signature rather than mere theme.
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.
A vintage material for contemporary creation
This 25-year vintage opens a door to another era of perfumery. An uncommon voice from legendary perfumery heritage, made for mature, daring compositions—a scent from the past, ready to inspire something entirely new.
