Bulgarian Spring Plum Blossom CO₂ Wax — Pure, Solid, Uncompromised

Plum blossom is one of the most fleeting and most celebrated floral moments of the year — the first flowers to appear on bare branches at the very start of spring, prized across Chinese and East Asian tradition as a symbol of resilience and renewal. This CO₂ wax, extracted from Bulgarian-grown Prunus domestica flowers, captures that brief seasonal moment in concentrated form — a soft, delicate floral-fruity material of genuine rarity that speaks of the particular balance of strength and tenderness found in the earliest blooms of the year.

Supplied here in its pure, undiluted, solid wax form — exactly as extracted, with no carrier of any kind added. This is the genuine article for perfumers who prefer to prepare their own dilutions, or who want to work directly with the material in its most concentrated and authentic state.

Scent Profile

Soft, delicate, and gently floral-fruity — a tender, springlike sweetness with subtle floral facets that evoke the fragility of blossom on bare branches. This is a quiet, understated material rather than a bold, assertive one — a genuine character material for perfumers seeking authentic, unusual botanical subtlety rather than dramatic projection.

Perfumery Applications

Well suited to delicate floral compositions, spring-inspired accords, and gentle skin-scent perfumery where a soft, authentic botanical floral note is wanted without overwhelming the composition. Its subtlety makes it a genuinely interesting material for perfumers building nuanced, understated floral bases rather than bold, projecting florals.

Usage Note

This wax is solid at room temperature. To prepare for use, gently warm in a water bath at around 90°C to melt it into a liquid, then dilute with your solvent of choice according to your own formulation preferences.

Blending Suggestions

Pairs beautifully with rose absolute, jasmine, osmanthus, peach, apricot, sandalwood, soft musks, and light woody materials.
