base
Rectified birch tar is a deep dark brown essential oil with an intense smoky and leathery aroma that is both powerful and distinctive. Due to its potency, this oil should be used sparingly, as even small amounts can dominate a blend. Its unique scent profile makes it a valuable ingredient in perfumery for adding depth and boldness to compositions.
The oil is derived from the distillation of Betula pendula, commonly known as birch bark. Its rich, smoky characteristics evoke a sense of warmth and ruggedness, making it an excellent addition to blends that require a leathery or smoky note. While its strength necessitates cautious handling, rectified birch tar oil remains a prized material in the creation of niche and complex fragrances, lending its bold personality to enhance and anchor scent profiles effectively.
