Artichoke Absolute
Adam Michael has this to say “The aroma is very unique opening with a bitter vegetative note (cynaropicrin) that resembles the artichoke leaf perfectly. As the aroma develops I detect meaty, earthy, rich, warm and slightly sweet vegetative notes and all of very good tenacity. Artichoke absolute is a rather interesting Egyptian material that I have obtained with the perfumer in mind and that will be of particular use to those creating a culinary perfume. This material is dark orange in colour, of pourable viscosity and obtained from the leaves of the plant by solvent extraction.”

Artichoke is a compelling absolute as once sniffed, one wants to go back and sniff again and again. For me, it encapsulates the exotic fruit and veg markets of abroad with a familiar nuance of cycling through the British countryside and smelling the melange of vegetables growing in the fields..
There is no bitter note to the nose, as I may have expected. Instead, warmth and succulent notes prevail.
In a blend, we have found it to be a beautiful base, an enriching addition and/or a welcome mystery to a citrus/floral.
