Origin

Cistus labdanum is a shrub that grows wild in many parts of the Mediterranean Basin. Today, cistus is harvested mainly in the South of Spain. It is remarkable for the gum it secretes in Summer to protect itself from the intense heat. This gum has been used in perfumery for 3000 years. The different products of gum (labdanum), leaves and branches are obtained by distillation or extraction.

In 1988 we opened a subsidiary in the heart of Spain’s Huelva Province to produce labdanum and cistus extracts on site. In 2013 we perfected an automated workshop for the production of labdanum gum. Since its construction, the factory has been producing a full range of cistus and gum derivatives.
