Cistus Oil (Spain)

Heart/Base note

CAS# 8016-26-0

Manufacturer: Albert Vieille

Odor description: resinous-fruity, ambery, woody (old wood), rich

The essence of cistus is obtained through the distillation of leaves and buds, which significantly alters its scent compared to standard labdanum. Its fragrance is very lively and rich (especially at the opening). The ambery, dense accents typical of labdanum are replaced here by a drier note, reminiscent of old, noble wood.
