Laurel Leaf Oil
Used in 5 formulas
About this material
Laurel Leaf Oil opens with a fresh, herbal scent that has a slightly camphoraceous edge, reminiscent of a walk through a Mediterranean grove. As it develops, the aroma becomes more rounded and warm, revealing a subtle sweetness that balances the initial sharpness. In a formula, it adds a green, aromatic quality that can enhance both fresh and woody compositions, providing a natural, uplifting character. It pairs well with citrus notes, which can brighten its herbal profile, and with spices like cardamom for a more complex depth. The typical usage in this catalogue is between 0.075% and 0.24%, usually around 0.110%.
