Clearwood® is an innovative woody fragrance ingredient developed by Firmenich using biotechnology and renewable sugarcane-derived raw materials. Introduced in 2014, Clearwood offers a modern interpretation of Patchouli, combining the warmth and depth of traditional woody notes with a clean, transparent character.

Its olfactory profile features warm, smooth woody notes blended with soft, creamy amber nuances and a subtle sweetness. Compared to traditional Patchouli essential oil, Clearwood has a cleaner profile with fewer earthy, leathery, and rubbery facets, while retaining the characteristic depth and longevity of woody fragrances.

In perfumery, Clearwood is primarily used in the heart and base notes to enhance richness, depth, and longevity. It is particularly suitable for Woody, Amber, Chypre, and Oriental compositions. Clearwood also blends beautifully with natural Patchouli essential oil, creating sophisticated woody accords that balance classic warmth with modern transparency.
