At the perfumer’s organ

Extraction & expression

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. Purification aims for a more focused, polished expression of the parent material.
