Clearwood® is a groundbreaking ingredient created through white biotechnology—a sustainable and innovative process using fermentation of certified sugarcane. Designed as a clean, modern reinterpretation of patchouli, Clearwood® offers a soft yet rich olfactive profile that brings a new dimension to fragrance creation. It combines the creamy warmth of amber with a smooth, dark woody nuance reminiscent of patchouli, yet without the earthy, camphoraceous edges traditionally associated with it.
Rich in patchoulol, Clearwood® can elegantly complement natural patchouli essential oil or stand alone as a new building block in modern perfumery. It beams with brightness and texture, delivering roundness, diffusion, and a sophisticated depth to a wide range of compositions—from florals and chypres to gourmands and ambers.
Clearwood® not only enhances a formula's olfactive structure but also its sustainability story, making it ideal for eco-conscious luxury creations. Whether used subtly or in higher concentrations, it offers perfumers a versatile, high-performing material with a signature that’s both familiar and forward-looking.
