Листя мікелії

Green, terpenic, faintly floral — the darker, more vegetal side of the champaca tree. Michelia leaf smells like a tropical greenhouse: humid green with a hint of the flower's sweetness underneath.

Спосіб отримання
Steam distillation of Michelia champaca leaves is possible but not standard commercial practice. The leaf oil has a lower value than flower absolute. Some producers in India and Indonesia offer leaf distillates as byproducts of flower absolute production.

У парфумерії
Michelia leaf provides a green, terpenic modifier suggesting the tropical foliage context of champaca flowers. Not widely available as a distinct commercial extract — usually referenced as part of champaca-tree accords. Functions as a green base note with tropical character. Reconstructed from green terpenes (pinene, limonene), caryophyllene, and traces of champaca-type florals. Useful in tropical green accords and jungle-realist compositions.
