Botanical Name: Jasminum grandiflorum Plant Part: Flower Extraction Method: Food Grade solvent Origin: India Description: Jasmine Grandiflorum is a beautiful plant; its flowers bloom in the early dawn as opposed to Jasmine Sambac that blooms in the evening. Color: Orange to Brown Common Uses: Jasmine Grandiflorum is well respected for its aphrodisiac properties. It is a sensual, soothing, calming oil that promotes love and peace. Consistency: Viscous Note: Middle to Base Strength of Aroma: Strong Blends well with: Jasmine Grandiflorum generally works with all oils. It helps to round out scents, and tends to work particularly well with other aphrodisiac oils (sandalwood and Ylang Ylang are two great examples) Aromatic Description: Jasmine Grandiflorum has a smooth, extremely intense floral smell that is both sweet and lingering. ** It is important to note that all absolutes are extremely concentrated by nature. They should not be evaluated in this state unless you are accustomed to the undiluted fragrance. For those trying Absolutes for the first time, we strongly recommend they be evaluated in dilution. Otherwise, the complexity of the fragrance - particularly the rare and exotic notes - become lost. History: Since ancient times, Jasmine has been referred to as the King of oils (Rose is the Queen). Apparently this is because Jasmine is the most masculine of all the floral oils. It is also interesting to note that It takes 8,000 carefully hand-picked blossoms to produce 1 gram (about 1 ml.) of Jasmine Absolute. Cautions: None Known.

This is the best smelling jasmine grandiflorum absolute around. I've purchased jasmine absolutes from many major eo companies, and this one smells the freshest and the most intricate. I have both the 3% dilution and the abolute. The 3% is great, because I can use it as a perfume oil right away, and the scent is smooth and welcoming.

Beautiful oil, but it made me feel lightheaded when I used too much of it once. It truly is a deeply relaxing oil.

I adore this jasmine grandiflorum! It is one of the very best jasmine g's I've ever encountered ~ very tenacious, heavy and cloying. I diluted this down to 30% and it retains its heaviness beautifully. The price is excellent for a product of this quality.

Very good quality meets fair price. If you've never used an absolute before take heed to use only the smallest amount as they are VERY strong. One drop can work wonders! Beautiful floral!
