Appearance

Tobacco Leaf Absolute from Concrete is a dark brown, semi-solid mass.

Odor

It has a strong, almost repulsive odor, faintly reminiscent of cigar tobacco.

Uses in perfumery

Tobacco Leaf Absolute is used not only in the tabac type of modern or aldehydic perfumes, but also for dry and masculine effects in fantasy types, in Oriental blends, etc.

Production

The leaves are processed into concrete by petroleum ether or benzene extraction, and the concrete is then extracted with alcohol to yield an absolute.
