I started defining perfumery terms two post ago and its been fun reading about the different elements that go into perfumery, the perfumista slangs and such. I may not be able to write much today because the other job I have keeps pulling but I didn't want today to go by without touching this base.
Where did I stop the last time? O yes, Aldehydes! Next up Abelmosk
Abelmosk is an aromatic plant with yellow flowers and crimson centre also called ambrette or musk mallow usually cultivated for its flowers and seeds which yields a sweet, floral, woody, musky oil often used in perfumery and aromatherapy. Some people believe it is helpful in reducing anxiety and acts as an aphrodisiac.
Absinthe: Liquor distilled from herbs like wormwood, anise,fennel, angelica and hyssop.
Acacia: different shrubs and trees belonging to the mimosoideae of the fabaceae plant family. Elena Vosnaki has a beautiful article on Acacia on her blog; http://perfumeshrine.blogspot.com/2012/05/perfumery-material-cassie-mimosa.html
I will share more later, hopefully, soon. Have a lovely week!
