Moss

K9ngdom Plantae, division Bryophyta; Other names: Mousse de Chene, treemoss

Group: WOODS AND MOSSES

Odor profile: An inky, bitter-smelling forest floor evocative, prized essence coming from the lichen that grows on oak trees in Europe (harvested in the Balkans). Nowadays severely restricted under skin sensitization concerns, it is nevertheless an essential part of chypre fragrances and fougère fragrances.
