At the perfumer’s organ

In the organ, use it to build gin accords, enrich aromatic woods and introduce incense freshness. As top note, it offers signature rather than mere theme.

  • aromatic woods
  • incense freshness
  • coniferous colognes

Extraction & expression

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.
