Cistus Absolute Green Pure, derived from the Cistus ladanifer plant (also known as Rock Rose or Labdanum), is a highly prized natural aromatic material. It is typically extracted via solvent extraction from the leaves and twigs, yielding a viscous liquid with a rich, warm, balsamic, herbaceous, and subtly sweet aroma. The 'Green Pure' designation often implies a fresher, more vibrant profile compared to traditional Labdanum absolutes, with distinct green and leathery undertones alongside its characteristic ambery notes. It is known for its excellent fixative properties in perfumery.
Primarily used in high-end perfumery and natural perfumery for its unique scent profile and fixative qualities. It adds depth, warmth, and a complex leathery-ambery character to fragrances. It is also valued in aromatherapy for its grounding and calming properties, often used to promote relaxation and meditation.
Found extensively in fine fragrances, including perfumes, colognes, and natural botanical perfumes, particularly in oriental, chypre, and fougère compositions. It is also incorporated into cosmetic formulations such as lotions, creams, soaps, and bath products, and used in room diffusers, candles, and incense for its atmospheric qualities.
Generally considered non-toxic, non-irritating, and non-sensitizing when properly diluted. However, as with all concentrated natural extracts, direct contact with undiluted absolute should be avoided. A patch test is recommended before extensive use. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes. Not for internal consumption without expert guidance. Keep out of reach of children and store in a cool, dark place. Adherence to IFRA (International Fragrance Association) guidelines is recommended for its use in perfumery products.
