In perfumery vocabulary, Cistus Absolute is associated with ambery, warm resin, herbal, leathery, honeyed and woody. 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 bring radiance to amber, enrich link aromatic herbs to balsams and introduce soften leather. 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 21-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.
