Tree Moss Absolute Max CTX

Original designation: Mousse arbre ABS Max CTX

Pseudevernia furfuracea

Tree moss absolute carries the scent of lichen dried on bark: woody, leathery and smoky, with less aquatic softness than oakmoss. Its long, austere line is superb for giving modern formulas the grain and patina of classical perfumery.
