Overview: Oakmoss oil is derived through the meticulous process of steam distillation from the lichen species Evernia prunastri or Evernia furfuracea, commonly recognized as oakmoss. This unique lichen thrives upon trees, particularly oaks, exuding an exquisite blend of earthiness and woody allure. The resultant oakmoss oil typically manifests as a deeply hued liquid, oscillating between shades of green and brown, characterised by a robust and evocative mossy fragrance. This olfactory masterpiece owes its complexity to an intricate assortment of aromatic molecules, which collectively contribute to its unparalleled scent profile. Originating predominantly from the verdant landscapes of southern and central Europe, oakmoss is meticulously cultivated and gathered. Notably, the oakmoss sourced from the former Yugoslavian region holds a particular allure. Despite the transformation in geopolitical boundaries, the term “Oakmoss absolute Yugoslavia”; endures as a nod to its historical roots. Subsequent to harvest, the raw materials undertake a journey to the renowned Grasse region of France, where the final stages of production unfold. In the realm of perfumery and fragrance craftsmanship, oakmoss oil reigns as a cherished ingredient. Revered for its profound impact, it finds its place as a foundational base note within fragrances. This distinctive contribution enriches compositions with depth, opulence, and enduring resonance, enhancing the overall longevity of the olfactory experience. The interplay of its iconic mossy and woodsy notes introduces an element of sophistication, lending complexity to fragrances designed for both men and women.
