From an incredible line of 100% natural perfumes, this fragrance was created by the highly respected Dominique Dubrana; Composer Perfumer. Hyraceum is the crystalized and petrified form of Hyrax urine, a small mammal resembling an over-grown guinea-pig and is the closest living relative to elephants. The tincture is obtained by infusing the powdered raw material into pure alcohol for a few weeks. The smell is similar to castoreum but has a distinct urinary note that can be found only in goat hair tincture among perfumery materials. Its smell is not at all disgusting as one may think, but it could be described as “interesting”, even to unprepared people who are not perfumers.
