## About
A small pot of solid perfume in your pocket, warmed by a fingertip and touched to the wrist: jasmine at its quietest. Floral waxes are nature's most solid aromatics, and this one smells soft and gentle, with just a touch of the exotic.Making an absolute begins with a concrete, a solid or semisolid mass holding all of the flower's waxes and aromatic compounds. When the absolute is washed out of the concrete with alcohol, what remains is a solid, mildly fragrant floral wax. It pairs well with a little bergamot FCF essential oil or a touch of black pepper.How to useSolid perfume: melt the wax in a heatproof glass cup, add a little warmed oil until it is as soft as you like, and pour it into a lip balm jar. For more intensity, add a drop or two of the absolute or a complementary essential oil.Creams and lotions: melt it into the oil phase, where it adds thickness, body and its exotic scent.Cold process soap: add it with your natural fragrance for a true jasmine note. It tends to give a slightly harder bar and a hint of color.Measuring: pop the block out of its jar and shave a few curls with a potato peeler into your warming carrier oils.Keep a little jasmine in solid form, for the days you want it close.
