This CO₂ wax, extracted from Bulgarian-grown \u003cem\u003ePrunus domestica\u003c\/em\u003e 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eAs the pure wax is solid at room temperature, we supply it at 50% in natural triethyl citrate (TEC) — an odourless, citrus-derived carrier that restores workable pourability. Given the genuinely waxy nature of this material, some warming may be required before use, and a degree of natural cloudiness or thickening at cool temperatures is characteristic of authentic CO₂ waxes of this kind rather than a fault.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eScent Profile\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eSoft, 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.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePerfumery Applications\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eWell 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. Evaluate carefully at working dilution to appreciate its full character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eBlending Suggestions\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003ePairs beautifully with rose absolute, jasmine, osmanthus, peach, apricot, sandalwood, soft musks, and light woody materials.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Details\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Name:\u003c\/strong\u003e \u003cem\u003ePrunus domestica\u003c\/em\u003e L.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eCommon Names:\u003c\/strong\u003e Plum Blossom\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eBotanical Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Rosaceae\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOrigin:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bulgaria\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePlant Part:\u003c\/strong\u003e Flowers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eExtraction Method:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supercritical CO₂ extraction (wax)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDilution:\u003c\/strong\u003e 50% in natural triethyl citrate (TEC) for ease of handling\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eClassification:\u003c\/strong\u003e Heart note\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAppearance:\u003c\/strong\u003e Warm-toned liquid, may show natural cloudiness or thickening at cool temperatures — warm gently before use\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eOdour Family:\u003c\/strong\u003e Floral \/ Fruity \/ Delicate \/ Springlike\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNatural:\u003c\/strong\u003e Yes — 100% natural CO₂ wax in natural TEC carrier\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003ePackaging\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e1ml sample supplied in a 5ml clear flint glass bottle. 5ml, 10ml and 30ml supplied in amber glass bottles — all with inbuilt droppers and tamper evident caps.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003ch3\u003eSafety Information\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eFor external use only.
