Цікавий факт
IFRA's restriction of oakmoss — the ingredient that defines the chypre family — in 2009 was the most controversial regulatory decision in contemporary use. Some perfumers called it 'the death of chypre,' while others have used the constraint as creative fuel to reinvent the form.

У парфумерії
Chypre is a structural accord, not a single note. Classic construction: bergamot (top), rose/jasmine (heart), oakmoss/labdanum (base). Modern adaptations use Evernyl, Clearwood, and treated oakmoss to replace IFRA-restricted natural oakmoss. The chypre family includes fruity chypres (peach, plum in the heart), green chypres (galbanum, green pepper), leather chypres (birch tar, quinolines), and floral chypres (rose dominant).
