Manufacturer: Firmenich

Odor description: spicy-resinous, fresh, hints of lemon and pink pepper, incense undertones

Elemi is an essence extracted from the Canarium luzonicum, a tree native to the Philippines. Its scent fiercely assaults the nostrils with an intense, peppery opening, only to smooth out and transform into a more woody-incense direction shortly after.

SFE stands for Supercritical Fluid Extraction, indicating a special extraction method known as supercritical extraction. It employs low temperatures, preserving more olfactive nuances of the raw material.
