About this material
Tobacco Leaf Absolute opens with a rich, warm, and slightly sweet aroma that captures the essence of cured tobacco leaves. The initial scent is deep and earthy, with hints of dried fruits and a subtle smokiness that develops as it settles. As it evolves, a velvety, resinous quality emerges, adding complexity and a touch of sweetness that can soften harsher notes in a formula. This material works well as a base note, providing depth and richness, and it pairs nicely with woody, spicy, and gourmand elements. In this catalogue, it is typically used at doses ranging from 0.044% to 0.19%, with a common usage around 0.090%.
