About this material

Evernia Prunastri

Oakmoss absolute essential oil is used extensively in perfumery. Used to form important parts of the notes in all fougere, chypre and moss perfumes, and commonly found in colognes, crepe de Chines, forest notes, new mown hay, pine fragrances, lavender bouquets, oriental bases, fancy or modern bases, etc. It can lend body and naturalness, rich pleasant undertones and high fixative value in numerous types of floral fragrances as well.

The Absolutes are the most versatile in perfumery use. Their solubility and great power make them the most popular forms of oakmoss extract. The absolute from benzene extraction is very dark green, viscous or semi-solid, while the absolute from petroleum ether extracted concrete is liquid and brownish-green, less intense in color. Furthermore, most oakmoss products are, in reality, mixtures of oakmoss and treemoss products, the latter being less green in color, but also different in odour.

The scientific name for Oakmoss is Evernia Prunastri. Oakmoss absolute essential oil is first extracted using a solvent extraction method, which yields a concrete and then completed by a vacuum distillation method to arrive at the Absolute.

For professional advice on using essential oils for medical conditions, it is recommended to consult with a healthcare professional.

We emphasise the importance of user responsibility and safety. We cannot be held liable for any harm, illness, or negative reaction resulting from the use of this precious oil dilution.

It is the users responsibility to ensure that they diligently adhere to safety protocols and are fully aware of any potential side effects prior to use.

Regardless of whether the natural product is purchased from us or elsewhere, we strongly recommend conducting a skin patch test before any topical use in the best interest of safety.

CAS numbers (comment): The scope of this Standard includes, but is not limited to the CAS number(s) indicated above; any other CAS number(s) used to identify these fragrance ingredients should be considered in scope as well.

Contributions from other sources: None to consider

Flavor use consideration: Due to the possible ingestion of small amounts of fragrance ingredients from their use in products in Categories 1 and 6, materials must not only comply with IFRA Standards but must also be recognized as safe as a flavoring ingredient as defined by the IOFI Code of Practice (www.iofi.org). For more details see chapter 1 of the Guidance for the use of IFRA Standards.

IFRA Standard type: RESTRICTION_SPECIFICATION

Intrinsic property driving the risk management measure: DERMAL SENSITIZATION

Restricted ingredients: notes: For Oakmoss and Treemoss extracts, the restrictions in the Standards are directly linked to the presence of Atranol and Chloroatranol in the finished products. To ensure that those remain below trace levels, the upper concentration levels have not been increased (compared its last publication in the Amendment 43 (2008)). In the presence of Treemoss extracts, the level of Oakmoss in the respective category has to be reduced accordingly, such that the total amount of both extracts does not exceed the maximum permitted level in each category as listed in the table above. If the same fragrance mixture is intended to be used in more than one IFRA Category, then the most restrictive limitation (based on foreseen use concentrations and maximum permitted level) will apply.

Specified ingredients: notes: Oakmoss extracts must not contain added Treemoss, which is a source of resin acids. Traces of resin acids may be carried over to commercial qualities of Oakmoss in the manufacturing process. These traces must not exceed 0.1% (1000 ppm) of Dehydroabietic acid (DHA) in the extract. The concentration of resin acids in Oakmoss can be measured with an High Performance Liquid Chromatography (HPLC) Reverse Phase – Spectrofluorometry method. Further, levels of Atranol and Chloroatranol should each be below 100 ppm in Oakmoss extracts.

Creative ideas to explore

Creative directions, not tested formulas.

Leaf and blossom

With rose and garden florals

Explore a green floral sketch around a clear flower reference. Compare the leafy accent with the flower alone and decide whether the scene suggests a cut stem, a growing garden or a greener abstraction you want to develop.

Peel and leaf

With bergamot and herbal directions

Use citrus as a bright setting for the green material, then try an herbal alternative as a separate variation. Keeping those contrasts apart makes it easier to choose between a peel-focused idea and a leafy cologne.

A shaded wood

With transparent woods and soft musk

Sketch a green wood direction with a restrained backdrop. Follow the leafy character as the study develops, comparing a wood-only reference to decide whether the scene suggests fresh branches, shaded timber or a softer woodland impression.

Please read our Documentation Supply Policy alongside the product specification and available documentation.

Synonyms, alternative names, CAS/EC references, botanical names, manufacturer references and external links may describe a substance or material family generally.
