Orange Blossom Absolute

About this material

Orange Blossom Absolute opens with a bright, sweet floral scent that is immediately recognizable and uplifting. It has a rich, honeyed quality that develops into a slightly green, fresh nuance as it settles, reminiscent of the actual blossoms. This material adds a lush, creamy floral character to compositions, enhancing the overall sweetness without becoming cloying. It works well in both floral and fruity accords, providing depth and complexity, and can also soften sharper notes in a blend. Pair it with citrus oils for a vibrant top note or with woods to create a more rounded, sophisticated base. The typical usage in formulas ranges from 0.030% to 0.35%, with an average around 0.109%.
