Essential oil of Portuguese Cypress (Cupressus Lusitanica) Le Sourceur is 100% pure and natural. It is obtained by steam distillation of the leafy branches of the tree cultivated in Madagascar by the association Coeur de Forêt. Original and surprising, its fragrance is very different from classic cypress. With an unequalled power, it is at the same time citrusy, aromatic and woody. Fabulous notes that bring a green and fruity effect in perfumed creations or simply in diffusion. Not to be missed under any circumstances.
In addition, Portuguese Cypress Essential Oil will be a great ally in everyday life. Rich in monoterpenes, it has many properties : antiseptic, antiviral and sedative.
OLFACTORY DESCRIPTION
Unique, this Portuguese Cypress totally modernizes the idea of this classic perfumery note. As aromatic as it is resinous, incisive and acerbic, it’s a very dynamic fruity cocktail that opens the note : apple, green mango… Then, under lemony accents of lime, the evolution gradually recalls turpentine and mountain alcohol : a wild and summery woody sensation is imposed. The base notes are more earthy, sedate and persistent, giving it a solid hold over time.
IN PERFUMES
Notes:
Top, Heart
Associations:
Binder for aromatic and woody notes Eucalyptus / Vetiver, green and fruity effect.
Resinous note with Lavender / Firbalsam / Myrrh.
Creations :
This variety is very different from Cupressus Sempervirens which is widely used in perfumery, so Le Sourceur offers an original alternative with new possibilities.
