Variety: Cistus ladaniferus L. Classification: Base Note[i]
We are very excited to be able to offer this intense and rich “super premium” labdanum (cistus) absolute, a speciality of Floral Concept in Grasse and certainly the finest we have seen. It is a near-black and extremely viscous extraction and consequently is offered here either pure or at a 50% dilution in odourless Triethyl Citrate (100% natural isolate from citrus).
In comparison to labdanum resinoid, this absolute is lighter, more volatile, and has a cleaner floral-balsamic scent that outshines the thicker, earthier resinoid. This is the labdanum of the golden age of perfumery. You will never need another.
Part: Exudate of leaves and flowers
Method: Ethanol extraction of concrete.
Labdanum Absolute “Super Premium” shows balanced behaviour with moderate strength (6/10) and proportional impact in blends (4/10). Versatile and predictable to work with.

General Information
General Information
Like most suppliers and makers of quality raw materials for fragrances, we do not filter many of our products. This ensures that no odiferous matter is lost prior to use but can result in the appearance of small particles or slight clouding.
All alcoholic fragrances should be macerated for up to a month and then chilled in a moderate freezer overnight before being filtered fine. This will remove all cloudiness or detritus and is the industry norm.
