Absolutes

Absolutes are highly concentrated aromatic oils extracted from plants using a solvent method.

The multi-step process involves extracting the aromatic oil with a chemical solvent like hexane, resulting in a waxy substance called a concrete.

Ethyl alcohol is then used to extract the aromatic oils from the concrete, leaving behind an absolute with a scent resembling the original plant.

Absolutes are the most concentrated form of fragrance used in natural perfumery.

Unlike essential oils, they also contain a higher density of coloring, waxes, and other plant constituents.

Typically, absolutes retain a small percentage of alcohol from the extraction process, usually up to 2 or 3 percent.
