Opoponax Resinoid Absolute Odor: characteristic Use: Adam Michael has his to say “Opoponax resinoid absolute is produced by solvent extraction of the gum and then transformed into an absolute through alcoholic washing. The aroma is an infusion of luscious sweet toffee, soft dreamy vanilla, balsamic woods and sprinkled with liquorice, cinnamon, incense and earth. Jam red in colour, of a very thick consistency that will become pourable with bain-marie. This material showcases its beauty best when it is diluted at 10% in perfumers alcohol.” |

Opoponax Incolor Abs MD Odor: Woody Aldehydic Powdery Use: Opoponax, a cousin of myrrh, is a sweeter and less bitter gum which presents similar sensory characteristics. The resin is obtained by bark exudation either naturally, or after incision. African tribes use this relaxing and disinfecting gum as incense, or to perfume a moisturising preparation made of animal fat. In perfumery, opoponax is recognised as a valuable fixative. |

The Perfumery |
Opoponax Absolute, Kenya Odor: characteristic Use: Opoponax, or Sweet Myrrh, Absolute has an exceptionally sweet, balsamic, liqueur-like aroma. Because the plant source is closely related, Opoponax shares many of the same properties as Myrrh. It's commonly used in perfumery, incense, and herbal remedies. Though not a true absolute, it is a sweet, very thick material, extracted with alcohol from a hydrocarbon solvent extracted resinoid. It's worth noting that this material may require a hot water bath before blending. |
