Botanique :

The cypress is a tree of the family Cupressaceae and the genus Cupressus.

Chemotypes :

The genus Cupressus includes several other plants used in perfumery.
Cupressus funebris : Chinese cedar. Its composition is different from the Mediterranean cypress because of its woodier and dryer note.
Cupressus nootkatensis : Alaska Cedar, also woodier, smokier and dryer.

Extraction process :

The cypress grows in a sunny climate and must be well drained during the first three years of growth.
The twigs are harvested every four to five years to be distilled. Leaves and branches are distilled indifferently.
These are dried and steam distilled to obtain the essential oil. At the end of the distillation, the oil is collected in an essencier by decantation.

Geographic origin :
