Wild or cultivated shrub 2 to 5 m (7 to 16 ft.) tall. It grows on the
rocky coasts, in fields, woods, and arid and rocky mountain areas
of central and southern Europe and around the Mediterranean

terminal racemes that blossom in May. The part used is the flowers.
Genet has a rose and honey-like, persistent odor with a slight,
herbaceous note.
The derivatives are concrete, absolute, tincture, and extract. The
concrete is obtained by extracting the dried flowers in approximately
0.1% yields with petroleum ether; the absolute is prepared
by alcoholic extraction of the concrete. A tincture also is prepared
from the absolute. The concrete is a viscous, brownish mass with
a sweet, honey-like intense odor that characterizes all other derivatives
as well. | [Chemical Properties]
