LISYLANG is a proprietary fragrance ingredient developed by Robertet, representing a specialized derivative or modification of ylang-ylang (Cananga odorata) essential oil. Unlike standard ylang-ylang oil, LISYLANG has been specifically formulated to emphasize delicate floral top notes while maintaining the characteristic exotic, spicy depth associated with ylang-ylang, enhanced with gourmand coconut milk and monoi facets (Robertet, n.d.). This creates a modern interpretation of traditional ylang-ylang that offers perfumers enhanced versatility in contemporary floral compositions.

The ingredient falls within the classification of modified natural essential oils, where traditional botanical extracts are processed or blended to achieve specific olfactory profiles and performance characteristics. LISYLANG maintains the fundamental chemistry of Cananga odorata while presenting a refined sensory experience designed for modern perfumery applications.

Grapefruit oil is a cold-pressed essential oil extracted from the outer peel (epicarp) of Citrus paradisi Macfad., commonly known as grapefruit. This oil belongs to the citrus oil family and is obtained as a valuable co-product during commercial grapefruit juice processing. The extraction process involves mechanical cold pressing of the fresh peel, which preserves the volatile aromatic compounds and delivers the characteristic fresh, zesty fragrance that defines this material.

Jasmine Grandiflorum Absolute is one of the most important and revered natural perfume materials, extracted from the delicate white flowers of Jasminum officinale var. grandiflorum. This precious absolute represents the pinnacle of floral perfumery, valued for its complex, multifaceted aroma that combines intense floralcy with honeyed warmth, subtle green notes, and distinctive animalic undertones.

The material is produced through a two-stage extraction process: fresh flowers are first extracted with hydrocarbon solvents (typically hexane) to produce jasmine concrete—a waxy, semi-solid mass. This concrete is then washed with alcohol and chilled to remove plant waxes, yielding the absolute. The result is a concentrated aromatic liquid that captures the essence of jasmine flowers with remarkable fidelity.

Jasmine Grandiflorum Absolute is distinguished from its close relative, Jasmine Sambac, by its more elegant, refined, and creamy-floral character. While both are essential to perfumery, Grandiflorum is considered more sophisticated and is the traditional "jasmine of Grasse," historically the gold standard in fine fragrance composition.

Lavender Absolute (CAS 8000-28-0) is a premium natural extract obtained from Lavandula angustifolia flowers through solvent extraction, offering a richer, sweeter, and more tenacious profile than lavender essential oil. Its floral-herbal aroma features warm coumarinic and balsamic undertones with soft green facets, ideal for fougère, chypre, and amber compositions.

Highly valued for its fixative properties, it adds depth, naturalness, and roundness to fragrances, ensuring long-lasting projection and elegant diffusion in both classic and modern perfumery.

Tagetes Oil is the steam-distilled essential oil from Tagetes minuta, a fast-growing marigold species indigenous to South America and cultivated globally for its insect-repellent and aromatic properties. In perfumery, it emerged as a niche ingredient with no synthetic substitute, offering a distinctive balance between green pungency and fruity sweetness.

The oil contains highly active odorants, including cis-ocimene, tagetone, and dihydrotagetone, responsible for its immediately recognizable aroma. Historically, Arctander noted its extreme olfactory power and unique character, likening its drydown to a blend of green apple, chamomile, and crushed leaves.
