Oak CO₂ (France)
Oak CO₂ from France is a rich and woody fragrance note with an earthy, slightly smoky scent profile that carries subtle green and resinous undertones. Its aroma is deep, grounding, and natural, adding a robust and sophisticated quality to perfumes. Oak CO₂ imparts a warm, forest-like character and is often used as a base note to create depth and longevity in fragrance compositions. It pairs beautifully with woody, spicy, and floral notes, contributing to fragrances that are earthy, elegant, and full of character.
History & Production: Oak CO₂ extract is derived from French oak using CO₂ extraction, a method that preserves the wood’s natural scent profile more fully than traditional distillation. This technique captures the warm, complex aroma of oak in its purest form, without the influence of heat. In modern perfumery, French Oak CO₂ is prized for its ability to add a rich, earthy depth that enhances the sophistication of fragrances, evoking the timeless elegance of French woodlands.
