Animalic / Animal-derived

Beeswax Absolute

Original designation: Cera d'api Ass.

Apis mellifera

Beeswax absolute is the scent of a hive after summer: honeyed wax, warm pollen, hay and tobacco wrapped in a soft animalic glow. It does more than sweeten, it rounds a composition until disparate notes seem to share the same golden light.

Extraction & expression

Absolute extraction preserves a broad, saturated portrait of the source. Traditionally, fragrant biomass is first solvent-extracted and the resulting concrete or resinoid is purified with alcohol, giving perfumers a dense material rich in less-volatile facets.
