Description
Jasmine absolute essential oil is extracted from the freshly picked flowers of Jasminum grandiflorum (Spanish or Royal Jasmine) or Jasminum sambac (Arabian Jasmine) using solvent extraction, a method that preserves the full aromatic complexity of the delicate jasmine flowers. This is the undiluted absolute, offering the most concentrated and true-to-flower jasmine aroma available.
Jasmine absolute has a rich, warm, intensely floral, sweet, and slightly heady aroma with subtle fruity, honey-like, and indolic undertones. It is one of the most complex and beloved aromatics in natural perfumery and has been a cornerstone ingredient in the world’s finest fragrances for centuries. The main aromatic constituents include benzyl acetate, linalool, benzyl benzoate, and indole, the latter of which adds the characteristic slightly animalic depth that distinguishes jasmine from other florals.
In aromatherapy, jasmine absolute is one of the most highly regarded emotionally uplifting and mood-enhancing oils. It is used in blends for confidence, sensuality, depression, and emotional wellbeing. In skin care, jasmine is valued in preparations for dry, sensitive, and mature skin. Due to its high concentration, jasmine absolute should be used sparingly in blends. It combines beautifully with rose, sandalwood, bergamot, ylang ylang, patchouli, and virtually all other high-quality aromatics.
Jasmine absolute is generally well-tolerated at appropriate dilutions. Due to its potency and complexity, a little goes a very long way. Always dilute before skin application. This 10ml bottle is suitable for diffusers, oil burners, natural perfumery, and diluted skin care preparations. Not for internal use.
