Oakmoss Absolute (Low Atranol, IFRA-Compliant))
Oakmoss Absolute displays intense, mossy base notes reminiscent of a walk deep in a forest containing ferns, damp soil, moss, fungus & decaying leaves. It has an earthy yet green aroma that is deep & tenacious, lasting for weeks on a test strip. This Oakmoss is IFRA-compliant, which means it has had some of the atranol removed (it contains less than 100 parts per million) to reduce the possibility of adverse skin reactions. It is derived from hexane-free extraction of a lichen that grows predominantly on the bark of oak trees.
