The spirit or alcoholate of Osmanthus (Osmanthus Fragrans Lour) is an extract obtained by cold washing the concrete of osmanthus made from flowers harvested in China. This old method has been brought up to date by our sourcing manager, and allows us to get as close as possible to the original smell of the flower, and to retranscribe its entire olfactory spectrum.
Delicately floral, resolutely fruity, this extract is ideal for creating feminine perfumes with character. Or simply to enhance your cosmetic creations. But above all, it will surprise you with its irresistible fragrance, between apricot and jasmine.
OLFACTORY DESCRIPTION
Faced with such olfactory generosity, it is difficult to be exhaustive. Osmanthus presents itself with a scathing blast of opulent floral and fruity notes. Heady and complex, the jasmine heart of white flower is surrounded by an apricot facet. Its richness makes this osmanthus a rare example of a “fur” note… A bestial delicacy. Finally, this frantic race is accompanied by leather and smoke to explore the darkness of a most sensual oriental accord.
