Olfactive description

CLEARWOOD® delivers all the rewards of modern ingredient design. Beaming with light, it offers the creamy warmth of amber and a dark woody character reminiscent of patchouli.

CLEARWOOD® PRISMA is a concentrated version of CLEARWOOD® offering an even more intense woody-patchouli character with enhanced oakmoss and ambery facets.

Perfumery usage

CLEARWOOD® is a truly inspiring ingredient made possible by the genius of science, and rendered unforgettable by the perfumers' intuition.

It contains at least 90% of patchoulol. More delicate and feminine, it blends particularly well with floral bouquets.

Process

White Biotech is biotechnology employed in industrial processes. An example is the use of a micro-organism to produce a useful chemical by fermentation.

History

The dsm-firmenich woody family originated in 1972 with the discovery of the captive ingredient Polywood® and in 1986 with the launch of Norlimbanol®, two groundbreaking molecules that set the standard for powerful, long-lasting woody and ambery notes. These innovations laid the foundation for a series of advancements, introducing sustainable and high-performance alternatives to traditional woody ingredients like patchouli and sandalwood.

CLEARWOOD® is produced from a certified sustainably sourced sugarcane.
