[email protected]Moss / Lichen
Original designation: Mousse arbre ABS Max CTX
Pseudevernia furfuracea
Tree moss absolute carries the scent of lichen dried on bark: woody, leathery and smoky, with less aquatic softness than oakmoss. Its long, austere line is superb for giving modern formulas the grain and patina of classical perfumery.

In perfumery vocabulary, Tree Moss Absolute Max CTX is associated with dry woody, earthy, leathery, seaweed nuance, phenolic smoke and tobacco. 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 add a dry lichen signature, enrich build leathered forest accords and introduce strengthen fougere bases. As base note, it offers signature rather than mere theme.
Absolute extraction preserves a broad, saturated portrait of the source. Traditionally, fragrant biomass is first solvent-extracted and the resulting concrete or resinoid is purified with alcohol, giving perfumers a dense material rich in less-volatile facets.
A vintage material for contemporary creation
This 25–26-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.
