Gardenia Florida Absolute - Exotic Floral Perfumery Extract | China

Part of our Professional Perfumers Range — curated for the discerning natural perfumer seeking exceptional depth and rarity.

This opulent Gardenia florida absolute is a solvent-extracted aromatic of outstanding quality, prized by artisan perfumers for its lush, intoxicating floral character. Originating from China, where the Cape Jasmine (Gardenia florida L., Rubiaceae) has been treasured for centuries, this absolute delivers a sumptuously sweet, deeply floral bouquet with captivating richness and persistence.

Classified as a top note, this exquisite extract opens with an immediate, heady sweetness that unfolds into layers of creamy, narcotic florality. It is a specialist perfumery-grade ingredient rather than an aromatherapy oil, making it an indispensable addition to high-end fragrance compositions.

Blending Suggestions

Gardenia absolute harmonises beautifully with Ylang Ylang, Jasmine, Neroli and Rose for voluptuous white floral accords. It also pairs exceptionally well with warm spice oils and bright citrus notes, lending depth and sophistication to oriental, floral-gourmand and chypre compositions.
