At the perfumer’s organ

In the organ, use it to build vintage leather reconstruction, enrich smoky chypre and tobacco bases and introduce blotter-led study of a preserved house speciality. As base note, it offers signature rather than mere theme.

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.
