Read along as we delve into the fascinating world of Green Cognac essential oil, which is sourced from the picturesque Cognac producing area of eastern France. The oil is a by-product of wine (Cognac) making and is distilled from the wine precipitate known as 'lees'.
What makes Green Cognac essential oil so special is its rich and tenacious yeasty green base notes. When diluted, it contains the seductive essences of a fine-aged champagne Cognac. The aroma is complex, with tart, dry, brandy-wine-like notes that can naturally draw out the uniqueness of other essential oils. The oil is also known for its ability to lift and modify certain notes in perfume blends, making it a favorite of top-shelf natural perfumers worldwide.
Fashion designer Tom Ford uses Green Cognac pure essential oil in his private label Champaca Absolute perfume, adding to the oil's desirability and popularity. The famous perfumer Arctander describes Cognac oil as an intensely strong, almost harsh-fruity, oily-fatty, yet green-herbaceous odor of outstanding tenacity and great diffusive power. We fully agree with this description, and it is these heavy aromatic notes that we used as the benchmark to source this batch at Lotus Garden Botanicals. The oil appears as a mobile liquid that is semi-opaque with a pale turquoise to fluorescent green color.
To summarize, Green Cognac essential oil is a luxurious and highly sought-after essential oil in the perfumery industry. Its complex aroma, rich yeasty green base notes, and ability to modify other essential oils make it an indispensable ingredient in creating unique perfume blends. So, if you're looking to add a touch of luxury and uniqueness to your perfume, Green Cognac essential oil is the perfect choice.
