About this product
Early summer, a window left open, and the scent of a lilac in bloom drifting in over the sill. For anyone who grew up near lilac bushes, this extract is an instant trip back to those nights.
This is the undiluted CO2 total extract of Syringa vulgaris, organically produced from wild lilacs in Bulgaria. It is very thick, almost solid, and softly scented: never assertive, never overwhelming a room, but lovely, subtle and evocative. We offer it undiluted for those who find our 10% dilution too gentle, and for easier math in your own blends. It is described as relaxing, soothing and harmonizing, said to promote love and optimism, and it has a place in blends for grief.
Details
- Botanical name: Syringa vulgaris
- Origin: Bulgaria, from wild lilacs

How to use
Warm it gently before you work with it, and use the essence at only 2 or 3% of a blend. A drop of your dilution on the wrist, warmed by your skin, is the simplest way to meet it.
A rare and quiet floral, for the blender who remembers early summer nights.
