The moss scent is earthy, green, and slightly damp, evoking the rich aroma of forest floors or shaded glades. Its grounding and natural profile makes it a favorite for creating outdoorsy and calming fragrances.
Moss accords are often crafted using synthetic substitutes for natural mosses, such as Evernyl or other green aldehydes, which replicate its earthy, leafy aroma with subtle woody undertones. Typically used in base accords, moss enhances blends with florals, woods, or herbal notes by adding depth and balance.
Compared to oakmoss, moss is less woody and more green-fresh, with a softer and less resinous quality. Perfect for candles, diffusers, and body care products, the moss scent brings an earthy tranquility and connection to nature to your creations.
