Product Description
Our Orange Flower (Neroli) Absolute, sourced from Tunisia, is solvent-extracted from bitter orange blossom. A highly concentrated aromatic extract, it captures the full character of the raw material. Rich, sweet and honeyed floral, warmer and more indolic than neroli oil.
Used as a heart note in fine fragrance, eau de cologne and luxury skin care. Absolutes are very concentrated, so use them at low levels and always check your IFRA limits for each product type.
INCI Listing: Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Extract
