KUROMOJI essential oil

Lindera umbellata

 

△ Olfactory pyramid


Top notes:

Character: fresh, slightly camphorated/mentholated, resinous-green, light aromatic burst of leaf/light wood.

Main components: 1,8-cineole (~13.7%), d-limonene (~7.4%), β-myrcene (~7.7%).

Function: provides aromatic opening — a sensation of woody freshness, sharp.

Middle notes

Character: light woody + soft/rounded ‘terpene alcohol’ note, slightly floral/green (thanks to linalool), then wood/light resin.

Main components: mainly linalool (~42.8%) which gives it its soft and modulated ‘signature’. Also wood-green vegetation present.

Function: this is the main aromatic ‘material’ — the identity of the essential oil.

Base notes

Character: dry woody, moderately resinous, slightly earthy/old wood tone, soft but not overly heavy.

Main components: monoterpene residues and less volatile base compounds — although the oil remains dominated by volatiles, so the base is delicate.

Function: ensures persistence, anchoring the aroma after the higher phases.

Sensory profile

Overall profile: ‘fresh wood + camphor green → soft/aromatic light wood → light woody base’.

Suggested use: very good for ‘Japanese wood’, ‘calm forest’, ‘luxury spa with wood & foliage’ fragrance/ambience creations.

Suggested synergies:

Top notes: light citrus (bergamot, mandarin), green leaves/lime to accentuate the freshness.
Middle notes: light woods (cedar), herbs/green notes (rosemary, verbena) or ferns to reinforce the woody-green structure.
Base notes: moderate deeper woods (guaiac, light sandalwood) or white musk to prolong without weighing down.

SUGI essential oil

Main components: limonene (in some samples); traces of volatile monoterpenes.

Function: captures attention, gives the impression of ‘fresh leaves’ or ‘aromatic herbs’ upon opening.

Middle notes

Character: herbaceous-spicy, distinctly aromatic, more mature leaves, slightly pungent or ‘mentholated-aniseed’, signature of shiso

Main components: perillaldehyde (characteristic aroma); perilla ketone (depending on the chemotype); also β-caryophyllene, other moderate sesquiterpenes.

Function: provides the main aromatic body of the essential oil — where the personality is defined.

Base notes

Character: light woody-herbaceous base, dry/moderate, sometimes with an ‘earthy’ or ‘dry grass’ note depending on the sample

Main components: sesquiterpenes or less volatile compounds (e.g. β-caryophyllene, farnesene) provide stability.

Function: provides stability over time — even though the oil remains fairly volatile.

Sensory profile

Overall profile: fresh leaf/grass → spicy aromatic/ripe grass → light woody-herbaceous base.

Suggested use: perfect for ‘contemporary aromatic herbs’ formulas, ‘green/aromatic’ perfumes or sprays, synergies combining aromatic leaves and light woods.

TODOMATSU essential oil

Abies sachalinensis

△ Olfactory pyramid

 

Top notes

Character: fresh, clean, camphor-piney, slightly lemony

Main components responsible: α-pinene, β-pinene, limonene, camphene.

Function in perfume: provides the initial ‘forest/pine needles’ impression and a breathable/clean effect.

Middle notes

The green and balsamic soul

Character: green, resinous, slightly spicy and balmy

Responsible components: bornyl acetate (balsamic, slightly sweet/mentholated), β-phellandrene, myrcene.

Function: stabilises the initial freshness and gives the heart its ‘fresh fir/cedar’ facet.

Base notes

long-lasting and warm

Character: dry woody, resinous, very light earthy

Responsible components: traces of heavier terpenes and resinous esters (A. sachalinensis oil is dominated by monoterpenes, so the ‘base’ is lighter than for abundant resins). Result: a subtly woody base (more ‘fresh/resinous’ than vanilla or amber).

Note: unlike deep woods (which have heavier sesquiterpenes/diterpenes), this oil remains generally volatile and ‘clear’ — its base note is moderate.

Sensory profile

Overall profile: fresh conifer (pine/camphor) → resinous and slightly balsamic heart → discreet woody base. Several data sheets and producers describe the aroma as ‘fresh, clean, forest’.

Suggested synergies : combine with citrus fruits (bergamot, petitgrain) to enhance the top note; with lavender/herbs to soften; with woods (cedar, vetiver) or synthetic vanillin if you want a warmer, more sustained base note (but this changes the ‘pure forest’ character).

KOYAMAKI essential oil

Sciadopitys verticillata

 

△ Olfactory pyramid

 

Top notes

Character: green, coniferous, fresh pine, slightly camphorated/mentholated

Main components: α-pinene (~8.2%); β-pinene (~2.0%); limonene (~4.1%)

Function: immediately captures the impression of ‘fir tree/forest’ and brings a green, breathable freshness.

Middle notes

Green-woody material

Character: young wood, needles, light earth, sweet resin

Possible components: 1,8-cineole (~2.5%); spathulenol (~31.0%)

Function: provides woody depth, the soul of the oil, less volatile than the top note but still green/woody.

Base notes

Longevity, support

Character: dry woody, light earthy, subtly resinous

Components: although dominated by monoterpenes, spathulenol and other sesquiterpenes evoke this woody base.

Function: anchoring, prolonging the woody note to give a longer lasting effect than the top note alone.

Sensory profile

Overall profile: fresh conifer → young/green wood → light woody base.

Recommended use for ‘forest spirit’, ‘Japanese nature’ and ‘modern conifer’ formulations.

Suggested synergy:

can be combined with citrus fruits for the top note (e.g. bergamot), herbs/green leaves for the middle note (e.g. lavender, rosemary), and deeper woods (e.g. cedar, vetiver) to support the base note if you want to prolong the scent.

As with any essential oil, there is variability depending on the origin, tree, soil, and season—so the pyramid should be adapted based on the sample.

GETTO essential oil

Alpinia zerumbet

 

△ Olfactory pyramid

 

Top notes

Character: fresh, green, slightly spicy-herbaceous, with a hint of pine needles/light menthol.

E.g.: major compounds in the leaves: p-cymene, 1,8-cineole, terpinen-4-ol.

Function: captures the first aromatic impression – the ‘fresh air/grass/green ginger’ effect.

Middle notes

Character: herbaceous-spicy, slightly resinous, more ‘mature’ than the top notes, but still bright.

Main components: mainly terpinen-4-ol, sometimes camphor, sabinene, γ-terpinene.

For example, a study notes terpinen-4-ol ~ 37% in leaf oil.

Function: provides the aromatic substance, the soul of the fragrance – the ‘ginger/medicinal herb/leaf’ aroma.

Base notes

Character: dry woody, resinous, slightly ‘earthy’ or medicinal, but moderate (not a deep wood like vetiver).

Main components: heavier or less volatile, such as certain sesquiterpenes, esters or lactones specific to the plant, or traces of camphor/borneol/esters depending on the origin.

Function: ensures longevity, anchoring the aroma after the heart.

Sensory profile

Overall profile: fresh → herbaceous/green → light woody.

Recommended use: ideal for ‘fresh green’, ‘spa/well-being’, ‘Mediterranean/herbaceous’ applications, or in ‘modern green’ fragrances.

Suggested synergies:

Citrus fruits (bergamot, petitgrain) to amplify the top note. Aromatic herbs (rosemary, lavender) or light spices for the heart note. Light woods (Atlas cedar, beech wood) or light musks to support the base note if necessary.

Yuzu essential oil

Citrus juno

△ Olfactory pyramid

 

Top notes

Character: very fresh, sparkling, lime/mandarin zest, tangy and bright.

Function: initial aromatic impression of ‘citrus burst’ that immediately attracts.

Middle notes

Character: less immediate but still bright, herbaceous-citrus, light balsamic/green base

Components: reduction of ‘pure’ limonene, more secondary molecules such as linalool, traces of sesquiterpenes or heavier compounds that give a little roundness and depth.

Function: gives the oil its soul beyond the initial brightness — the less volatile but still dynamic facet.

Base notes

Character: subtly woody-citrus, light semi-resinous base, moderate hold

Main components: traces of heavier volatile or moderately volatile components (less well documented for this oil), which anchor the aroma after the more volatile phases.

Function: ensures duration and persistence — in this case, for a citrus fruit, the base will be rather light but present.

Sensory profile

Overall profile: fresh/lively zest → green citrus-herbal heart → light woody base.

Use: ideal for fragrance or wellness formulas seeking a modern, dynamic and elegant citrus note.

Suggested synergies:

Citrus and green notes: mandarin, bergamot, petitgrain, lemon leaf. Light, aromatic herbs: verbena, basil, sweet mint to enrich the heart. Light/moderate woods: cedar, guaiac wood, or a light musk for the base if you want to prolong the hold.

HINOKI essential oil

Chamaecyparis obtusa

 

△ Olfactory pyramid

 

Top notes

Character: fresh, light coniferous, slightly camphorated/green, zesty light wood

Typical components: α-pinene (in some types), sabinene, limonene, isobornyl acetate.

Example: the oil from the leaves contained sabinene and limonene as the main components. 
Function: this initial burst evokes ‘Japanese cypress forest’, light on wood, breathing.

Middle notes

Character: young wood, resinous, sweet, slightly balsamic, ‘pure hinoki’

Typical components: α-terpinyl acetate, borneol, τ-muurolol, α-terpineol.

Example: the wood study found borneol 16% and τ-muurolol ~17%.
Function: this part gives the oil its ‘body’ – the wood/resin signature of hinoki.

Base notes

Character: dry woody, slightly earthy or mossy, moderate but elegant

Typical components: α-cadinol (~10.9%), other heavy sesquiterpenes depending on origin.

Function: provides anchoring over time – although for this essence the anchoring is not ultra-deep like a wood such as vetiver, it remains sophisticated.

Sensory profile

Overall profile: fresh/coniferous → light wood/resinous → elegant woody base.

Use: perfect for perfume or home fragrance formulations that want a ‘Japanese hinoki’ note, light but sophisticated wood, Zen/forest atmosphere.

Suggested synergies:

Top notes: sweet citrus (yuzu, bergamot) to enhance the freshness.
Middle notes: light herbs (lavender, rosemary), green accords for ‘living wood’.
Base notes: deeper woods for support (Atlas cedar, beech wood, a hint of white musk) if greater longevity is desired.

Top notes

Character: light dry wood, needles/conifer, a slight freshness reminiscent of a sawmill, slightly resinous.

Key components: the more volatile part of the wood, probably moderate monoterpenes or sesquiterpenes (although little documented), but the initial impression comes from ‘worked wood’ and ‘dry conifer’.

Function: immediately capture that ‘forest vs. noble wood’ impression.

Middle notes

Character: rather assertive woody, resinous, slightly old wood, cedar/temple wood, moderate warmth.

Main components: notably thujopsene (high %), cedrol, β-himachalene, etc. These compounds create the main aromatic material.
