Ambrette seed oil Co2- Abelmoschus moschatus Medik

This is a aromatic monster, amazingly creamy and musky

Ambrette has long been prized in perfumery because it is one of the rare ingredients to contain natural musk compounds, one of which is named after the plant, ambrettolide.

Our Ambrette seed oil is extracted using Co2 extraction and has amazing creamy facets, fleeting nutty notes with silky & fruity undertones & nuances of liquor. It evolves into a powdery floral note of orris as it dries. With musky notes, it acts from the head to the base bringing texture and a long-lasting effect to the fragrance.

Hibiscus abelmoschus grows on mountain slopes and valleys. The yellow flowers with a purplish center, last only one day to soon become the fruit. These fruits are large fuzzy capsules that start out green and turn brown , contain the ambrette seeds.

Harvesting is done manually from May to September. The seeds are carefully separated from the shells and dried for about 2 days in the sun to reduce humidity. The seeds are then cleaned using a net where the impurities and non-exportable ambrette seeds are filtered out.

Perfect to use in the creation of musky, oriental perfumes.
