Description

Tolu Balsam Resinoid Pure is a rich natural perfumery material valued for its sweet, warm, balsamic and vanilla-like character. It is particularly useful for adding softness, warmth and rounded sweetness to fragrance compositions.

Its aroma combines sweet balsamic, vanilla-like, warm, resinous, slightly floral and cinnamon-like facets. This combination gives Tolu Balsam a smooth and comforting character that works beautifully in rich base accords while also adding warmth to the heart.

Tolu Balsam Resinoid Pure works especially well in amber, oriental, gourmand, balsamic, vanilla, floral and woody fragrances. It can help soften dry woods, support warm spices and create a smooth transition between floral heart notes and deeper base materials.

Perfumers' Tip

Tolu Balsam Resinoid Pure is excellent for creating a sweet, warm and balsamic base. Combine it with Benzoin, Vanilla and Tonka Bean for a rich gourmand effect, or pair it with Labdanum and Olibanum for a deeper amber-resinous accord.

For a warm floral composition, try Tolu Balsam Resinoid + Rose + Jasmine + Sandalwood + Benzoin. Cinnamon, Cardamom and Clove can emphasize its spicy facets, while Patchouli and Vetiver can add earthy depth.

Because Tolu Balsam has a naturally rich and sweet character, start at moderate levels and increase gradually during evaluation to avoid making the composition excessively heavy or sweet.
