It is a true water lily rather than the sacred lotus (\u003cem\u003eNelumbo nucifera\u003c\/em\u003e), and a different species from the \u003cem\u003eNymphaea alba\u003c\/em\u003e of our White Lotus Absolute. This CO₂ wax is extracted from the flowers and captures the plant's quiet floral character in concentrated, solid form.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSupplied here in its pure, undiluted, solid wax form — exactly as extracted, with no carrier of any kind added.

Well suited to solid perfumes, balms and other anhydrous formulations, and to soft floral and woody compositions. A little goes a long way, and it sits comfortably alongside other delicate materials. Introduce it gradually when building a composition.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eUsage Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis wax is solid at room temperature and melts at roughly 60–70°C.
