PRODUCT DESCRIPTION

An extract of Jasmine flowers that comes as a mobile, orange-brown liquid with a sweet, floral and intensely exotic fragrance.

It is a solvent extraction of the flowers to make the concrete and then ethanolic extraction of the absolute from the concrete.

The flowers are picked by hand at night and an experienced picker can pick 10,000-15,000 blossoms per night.

They have to be handled very carefully so as not to bruise the flower. 1,000 lbs of flowers yields approximately one pound of liquid concrete, which yields 0.2% of aromatic molecules.

According to the Cosmetic Ingredient Database (CosIng), the functions of Jasmine Absolute are: Masking, Perfuming.To view more information, visit the CosIng Database here.
