About this product
Some scents are too grand to meet at full strength. Diluted, orange blossom absolute opens into exactly what perfumers love it for: a radiant floral, rich, warm and heady, like an orange grove in full bloom at dusk.
This is our bitter orange blossom absolute, Citrus aurantium, diluted to 10% in fractionated coconut oil. The blossoms are grown and solvent-extracted to a concrete in Tunisia, and the absolute is produced in France. It recalls Neroli but runs deeper and more complex, and it stays potent even at low dilutions, so a small part of a blend is enough to give it depth and heart.
The full-strength absolute is thick and may need a pipette or gentle warming to pour; in this form it is already blended into a light carrier.
Details
- Botanical name: Citrus aurantium
- Plant part: bitter orange tree blossoms, grown in Tunisia
- Method: solvent extraction to a concrete in Tunisia; absolute produced in France
- Dilution: 10% in fractionated coconut oil
How to use
Use it wherever a blend needs a floral heart rather than a top note. Pair it with Neroli, ground it with Benzoin, Frankincense or Lavender absolute, or warm it with Coriander or Ginger. Keep it out of reach of children.
A drop of grandeur, kept within easy reach.
