This is not a compromise material. Experienced perfumers who know genuine ambrette seed extract regard it as one of the most beautiful naturals in existence — period.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis Ambrette Seed CO₂ Extract is extracted from the seeds of \u003cem\u003eAbelmoschus moschatus\u003c\/em\u003e from India, using supercritical CO₂ extraction. It is supplied as a pale yellow liquid that is easy to measure and blend — cleaner and more true to the botanical than conventional solvent extraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eImportant note for perfumers:\u003c\/em\u003e This is a 100% natural botanical CO₂ extract — it is entirely distinct from synthetic musk ambrette (an aroma chemical with sensitisation concerns). The natural extract does not carry the restrictions of its synthetic counterpart and should not be confused with it in any documentation or formulation work.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eScent Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe opening is soft, warm, and immediately distinctive — a subtle botanical musky quality that is simultaneously skin-like, slightly fruity, and delicately floral in a combination that no synthetic musk approximates with any conviction. Characteristic pear and wine-like nuances add an unusual and beautiful fruity dimension that develops beautifully over the first hour. The heart is warm, sensual, and deeply musk-like — skin-close, intimate, and possessed of a naturalness that synthetic musks spend their entire existence trying to achieve. The drydown is extraordinarily tenacious — one of the finest natural fixatives available, persisting on skin for many hours and evolving beautifully as it develops.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfumery Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAmbrette seed CO₂ extract is one of the great base note materials in natural perfumery — valuable simultaneously as a fixative of exceptional tenacity, a musk material of unusual naturalness, and a character note of genuine beauty. It fixes and rounds floral, amber, woody, resinous, and gourmand compositions with equal facility — softening harsh edges, adding warmth and sensuality, and extending the longevity of surrounding materials with remarkable effect.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIn musk compositions it is the natural centrepiece — the botanical musk around which other materials are assembled. In oriental structures its warm, skin-like quality adds a deeply intimate dimension to resinous and balsamic bases. In floral compositions it provides a soft, naturalising musky background that prevents the accord from feeling thin or synthetic. In luxury skin care fragrance compositions it is unsurpassed — its skin-close, warm character perfectly suited to materials intended for intimate wear.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eBlending Suggestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePairs beautifully with rose absolute, jasmine, neroli, ylang ylang, orange blossom, bergamot, lemon, grapefruit, angelica root, boronia, geranium, clary sage, frankincense, labdanum, cedarwood, sandalwood, vetiver, patchouli, and soft musks. The combination with rose absolute and sandalwood produces a warm, sensual floral musk of extraordinary naturalness and longevity — one of the great pairings in natural perfumery.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003eAbelmoschus moschatus\u003c\/em\u003e Medik.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Names:\u003c\/strong\u003e Ambrette \/ Musk Ambrette \/ Musk Mallow \/ Muskmallow\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Malvaceae\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eINCI:\u003c\/strong\u003e Abelmoschus Moschatus Seed Oil\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCountry of Origin:\u003c\/strong\u003e India\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtraction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supercritical CO₂ extraction\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVolatile Content:\u003c\/strong\u003e 100% — contains no waxes (supplier information)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Part:\u003c\/strong\u003e Seeds\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Base note — outstanding fixative\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Pale yellow liquid\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOdour Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Musk \/ Warm \/ Fruity \/ Floral \/ Pear \/ Wine\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — 100% pure natural botanical CO₂ extract\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNote:\u003c\/strong\u003e Not to be confused with synthetic musk ambrette — this is the natural botanical extract, entirely distinct in character and safety profile\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003ePackaging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1ml sample supplied in a 5ml clear flint glass bottle. 5ml, 10ml and 30ml supplied in amber glass bottles — all with inbuilt droppers and tamper evident caps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eSafety Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor external use only.
