Mastic Absolute

Original designation: Lentisque ABS

Pistacia lentiscus

Mastic absolute smells of sunlit resin and crushed evergreen leaves: pine-bright, lemony, dry and quietly balsamic. It brings the atmosphere of Mediterranean scrub to incense, woods and aromatic colognes.

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.
