Description

Although the term narcissus originated from the same Greek word that roots the term narcotic, narke, which means “to be numb”, it’s not the narcotic properties that brought such fame for narcissus perfume, but rather the powerful mesmerizing fragrance that it exerts around, and of course, there is no better way to express the complex uniqueness of the strong intoxicating yet sweet floral scents of the narcissus flowers.

Fresh narcissus flowers are used to produce solvent extraction. Then this solvent extraction is filtered and distilled to obtain a concrete essence which eventually yields a highly fragrant absolute. 500 kilograms of fresh flower petals can produce only one kilogram of concrete essence or just 300 grams of absolute, making it highly precious as well as expensive. This is the reason why natural narcissus absolute is rare and only used in premium quality perfumes.

Narcissus absolute is a liquid substance with an orange hue that has a potent, sweet, grassy-green scent with a powerful grassy-floral undernote. It works wonders in combination with the essential oils of ylang-ylang, clove, rose, sandalwood, and neroli, and also with various spicy and floral oils.
