Orange Flower Absolute (Tunisia)
Adam Michael has this to say “Tunisia orange blossom absolute is refreshing, floral, happy and uplifting with soft playful bitter orange nuances dancing on a delicate bed of herbaceous wonderment. Whilst I look upon the essential oil as a top note, I personally regard this absolute as an intensely refreshing heart note that really sings, shines and sparkles. The therapeutic uses can be considered similar to neroli essential oil. It is also effective at calming the nerves and soothing the soul. When diluted in carrier oil and massaged down the jaw line this may benefit those who suffer with insomnia. The colour of this solvent extracted material is dark orange-brown and of a slightly thick but pourable viscosity.”
The leaves from this tree provide Petitgrain, the fruit peel provides us with Bitter Orange, one tonne of flowers provide roughly 1 kilo of Neroli which is obtained via steam distillation. A by-product follows in the form of Orange Flower Water. And when the Orange Flower Water oil compounds are extracted we get a product known as Orange Flower Water Absolute. If the flowers are solvent extracted we get two further materials – Orange Flower Concrete and Orange Blossom Absolute.

I have to tell you that this Tunisian orange blossom absolute is a Pure and Marvelous Luxury in an amber glass bottle. Speechless and amazed by its beauty.
The opening is very rich and very intense herbaceous notes with floral presence – for me it smells real mandarin or orange blossom exposed to a heat of spring sun.
Reminds me of citruses, fresh roses and freesias together with seductive jasmine in a beautiful geometrical garden next to an ancient castle.
It is simply sublime with a hint of neroli in it.
For me it is like breathing a soul of the universe itself.
It’s tenacious, it’s warm, it’s sweet and bitter at the same time – like yin and yang.
Mysterious, hypnotic, erotic, aphrodisiac scent.
It lasts for days on a blotter and on its dry down it softens to a calming floral bouquet in a brides hands.
For me it’s a perfume by its own – anyway an absolute Must in my compositions – it adds such a great feeling of happiness as if you were dancing in an opened field with joy at the very first moment you really felt in love.
I could splash it all over my body every single day and never be tiered of this Magic of Nature.
It’s worth of princesses and queens.
I simply love the dance of atoms in this unique composition of its molecules.
It is the most beautiful music of Orange Flowers … The music i will never stop listening to.
Eleonora, Adam – again and again – You both are Number One .
