Olfactory description

Fir Balsam Oliffac IFF 0912 is a perfume ingredient with warm, balsamic, and spicy nuances, with sweet, resinous accents. Its complexity recalls the scent of soft tobacco leaves, enriched with dry woody notes, an elegant leathery touch, and an aura similar to Iso E Super, but more rounded and full-bodied.

Main chords :

• Warm balsamic
• Sweet spicy
• Tobacco & Honey
• Dry woody & leathery
• Amber, resin and talc
• Vanilla, cinnamon and an earthy-bitter hint

Main features

• Adds volume and creaminess to textures
• Intensifies natural sweetness without weighing down
• Excellent for the "bloom" effect in floral and oriental compositions
