Jasmine Sambac Absolute

Jasmine Sambac Absolute is richer and more indolic than Jasmine Grandiflorum, with a pronounced green freshness and a distinctive tea-like nuance. Its aroma is deeply floral yet complex. It is simultaneously sweet, animalic, and slightly leathery, giving it a powerful presence that feels both exotic and intimate. This is a jasmine that commands attention while remaining natural and alive.

Jasmine Sambac Absolute is typically used as a heart note, where its intensity can shape the emotional core of a fragrance.

Recommended concentration:
Fine fragrance: 0.02–0.3% (extremely potent)

Blends beautifully with:
Citrus notes (bergamot, neroli)
Soft woods (sandalwood, cedarwood)
Rose absolutes
Animalic modifiers and soft musks

Suitable for non-perfumery applications such as luxury skincare, balms, creams, soaps, and body oils when properly diluted

Even trace amounts add depth, sensuality, and unmistakable floral richness.
