About Ho wood

Ho wood is an aromatic material obtained from linalool-rich chemotypes of the camphor tree, Cinnamomum camphora. Essential oils distilled from wood, twigs, or leaves are used as a source of natural linalool for fragrance applications.

Scent Profile

Its linalool-rich profile is softly floral and faintly citrus-like, with a clean, transparent woody undertone reminiscent of rosewood. Composition varies with plant part, origin, and chemotype.

Use in Perfumery

Ho wood helps connect floral, citrus, aromatic, and woody structures. It softens sharp edges while preserving brightness and adds a clean trail from the heart into the base.
