Porcini Mushroom Absolute adds depth and complexity making any composition more interesting in the right amounts. Use a very light hand with this material. Very very little is needed to greatly alter formulas. We offer small sizes for this reason. Mushroom Absolutes age beautifully and it can be very beneficial for a perfumer to have a 5ml bottle for many many years. It is quite a special and curious material....
A deep, dark earth note, somewhat salty almost chocolate like savory essence with great intensity. The drydown of this fine material is like that of Hay Absolute with hints of tobacco and cacao. A gorgeously rich brown absolute oil invaluable in gourmand blends, forest compositions and so much more. Can be used in trace amounts with most florals to add and a mysterious alluring undertone.
A note on absolutes: Absolutes are highly concentrated aromatic materials. Their aroma is best observed in alcohol or carrier oil. Try diluting into one of our premium carrier oils or into alcohol at 5%, 10% or 20% and see how the scent will subtley change.
