What this is made of

Damiana names no single substance

A natural extract

Turnera diffusa leaf extract - a real material we do not hold. The link we would make is NaturalComplex; flagged rather than typed as Reconstruction, because the oil exists and the gap is ours.

How the layers join

Origin

From the leaves of Turnera diffusa, a shrub of Mexico, Central America and the Caribbean, long used as a herbal infusion and liqueur flavouring. Available as an absolute or extract rather than a common distilled oil.

Usage in Perfumery

A soft tobacco-hay effect in natural and niche compositions, where it sits with tonka, hay and dried fruit notes.
