| Hazard Information | Back Directory | [Description]
Narcissus absolute is a very scarce and, partly for that reason, very rarely used perfume material from Narcissus jonquilla. This very fragrant narcissus
species probably originated in Asia Minor, and it is cultivated in the Grasse region of southern France and in Morocco for the purpose
of extracting perfume oil. The flowers are extraeted with petroleum ether to yield a concrete which, in turn, is processed to an absolute.
Jonquil absolute from concrete is a viscous, dark-brown, or dark-orange to olive-brown liquid of heavy, honey-like, deep, sweet floral
odor with a strong green backnote and a somewhat bitter, very tenacious dryout note. The odor bears great similarity to the fragrance
of longoza and tuberose and a resemblance to hyacinth. Dark-brown viscous oil extract from the flowers of Narcissus. | [Uses]
Narcissus absolute has some perfumery uses (Joy; hyacinth; jonquil; tuberose). | [Definition]
Extractives and their physically modified derivatives. Narcissus jonquilla, Amaryllidaceae. |
