The aroma of Cypress trees creates part of the light breezy smell in a Mediterranean forest. The absolute, which is an uncommon perfumery raw material, lasts longer than the more common essential oil (which we also stock). It's deep, woody and mossy.
Very thick dark green, gum like liquid. Heating in a hot water bath is advised (a bowl of hot water from the kettle will do) before weighing out with a spatula (this can be cleaned afterwards with Perfumer's alcohol).
We can also supply 100g quantities but they may have a long lead time, email us at info@thefragrancefoundry.com for more details.

I have an addiction, Sam provides… 5 star!
Cypress Absolute smells deliciously woody and has an almost top note initial woodiness that very, very slowly dries down into a sweeter, more traditional Cypress note. I will only be using it in small quantities. It is however a very intractable gummy material. The jar FF supplied the 19g in had sufficient space above to allow 10g of alcohol to added to the jar, allowing a dilution of 50% without handling the material directly.
Also came with hugely useful preprinted dilution labels.
Beautiful, rich, woody, mossy, green, slightly balsamic. Not easy to find and a lovely way to add some natural character to other woody notes & your fragrance in general.
Cypress Absolute commands respect with its rich viscosity and strength. Dilution is definitely
required, but the potent essence delivers an unparalleled aromatic experience at levels of 10% and below.
