JASMINE
Jasmine is a rich, intoxicating floral note characterized by its intense, sweet, and sensual aroma. It has a deep, opulent fragrance with green and slightly animalic undertones. The scent is simultaneously delicate and powerful, with a narcotic, almost hypnotic quality that is both romantic and exotic.
Origin & Extraction
Jasmine is primarily extracted from two main species: Jasminum grandiflorum (Common Jasmine) and Jasminum sambac (Arabian Jasmine). The flowers are traditionally harvested at night when their fragrance is most potent. Extraction is typically done through solvent extraction or enfleurage, with absolute being the most concentrated and prized form of jasmine in perfumery.
