Animalic / Animal-derived

Castoreum Absolute R515

Name: Castoreum Absolute R515
SKU: MO-031

Original designation: Castoréum ABS R515

Castor spp.

Castoreum absolute is leather with a pulse: smoke, phenolic warmth, tobacco and a strange dried-fruit softness moving beneath the animalic core. In traces it can make an accord feel less manufactured and more like an object worn for decades.

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.
