Lavandin Enfleurage - Lavandula Hybrida Extract Absolute

Part of our Professional Perfumers Range — curated for the discerning natural perfumer seeking exceptional depth and rarity. Few aromatic extracts capture the spirit of lavender in flower as faithfully as this extraordinary absolute. Produced via an advanced cold-process solvent extraction technique — entirely free from petrochemical solvents — this Lavandula hybrida absolute preserves the delicate aromatic architecture that conventional steam distillation and standard solvent methods cannot retain. The olfactory journey begins with luminous top notes of fresh herbs and ripe pear — a vivacity that standard lavandin oils lose almost immediately. As the material breathes, a voluptuous coumarinic heart emerges, redolent of sun-dried hay and sweet grasses, with a warmth and roundness that speaks of long Provençal afternoons. The dry-down settles into a gentle, tea-like whisper — unhurried, refined, and remarkably enduring. Where camphoraceous lavandin oils can feel austere, and conventional absolutes carry faint processing artefacts, this extract occupies a uniquely pristine olfactory space. The inherent coumarin content acts as a natural fixative, anchoring the composition and delivering longevity that belies its delicate character. Blending Guidance An exceptionally versatile heart note for the natural perfumer. Pair with bergamot and oakmoss for a polished fougère structure; combine with clary sage and tonka bean for warm, herbaceous depth; or anchor with patchouli and labdanum for a dark aromatic base. Its fresh-fruity opening and hay-sweet drydown lend themselves beautifully to contemporary colognes and classic lavender soliflores alike.
