Absolutes are the richest and most aromatic form of fragrance generated from natural plant sources. The fragrant, volatile fluids that are collected from plants are the source of Absolutes, just as Essential Oils. Absolutes are distinct from Essential Oils in that they include a higher concentration of plant-derived pigments, waxes, and other components. As a result, they have a thicker viscosity, and the scent is more potent and in tune with nature’s aroma as opposed to essential oils.
