Торф
Smoky, earthy, and wet-decayed. Peat smells like millennia of plant matter decomposing in waterlogged acidity — dark earth, cold smoke, and the mineral tang of ancient bog water.

Запах
Докладно
Цікавий факт
Peat bogs preserve organic material so effectively that 'bog bodies' — human remains thousands of years old — have been found with skin, hair, and even stomach contents intact. The acidic, oxygen-poor conditions that create peat also create an effective natural preservation environments on Earth.
Отримання й хімія
Спосіб отримання
Not conventionally extracted for perfumery. Peat smoke distillate (from burning peat over a fire or kiln) captures the phenolic smoke character. Synthetic peat accords use guaiacol, syringol, and smoky-phenolic molecules. Raw peat character is harder to capture and typically requires earthy (geosmin, vetiver) and acidic elements.

У парфумерії
Peat is a base note providing dark, smoky-earthy depth with mineral acidity. The burned variant (phenolic-smoky) is more frequent than raw peat character. Built from smoky-phenolic molecules (guaiacol, cresol derivatives), dark-earth elements (vetiver fractions, geosmin traces), and acidic-mineral accents. Useful in smoky, whisky-themed, territory, and dark-atmospheric compositions.
