  • Hexane Free.

    Our range of absolutes has been extracted using modernized technology similar to the ancient method of Enfleurage. The extraction process uses only certified organic solvents, such as fixed oils and alcohol, to coax the aromatic essence from the plant material. The multi-step process begins by extracting the aromatic oil from the plant material using organic solvents, such as fixed oils. After the solvent is removed, a waxy substance called concrete remains. The aromatic oils are then extracted from the concrete with ethyl alcohol, and after the ethyl alcohol is removed, the remaining substance is an absolute.
