INCI NAME: Rosa x centifolia.
ORIGIN: Morocco.
Bottled in Hawai’i.
PART USED: Flowers.
EXTRACTION METHOD: 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 out of the plant material. The multi-step process includes first extracting the aromatic oil from the plant material using organic solvents such as fixed oils. After the solvent is removed, what is left behind is a waxy substance called concrete. The aromatic oils are then extracted from the concrete with ethyl alcohol; after the ethyl alcohol is removed, the remaining substance is absolute.
NOTE CLASSIFICATION: Middle Note.
