Birch

28 perfumes

Derived from the bark of the Betula tree, birch tar is obtained through dry distillation, yielding a potent, leathery, and smoky essence. As a robust base note, it provides a dark, charred foundation that anchors complex fragrances. In the Gulf, birch is prized for its ability to mimic the intensity of traditional incense, often layered with rich oud or spicy saffron. It imparts a sophisticated, rugged depth, evoking the timeless allure of desert campfires under a vast, starlit Arabian sky.
