Mimosa absolute

$422.53

Overview: Mimosa absolute, a prized aromatic extract derived from the delicate blossoms of the Mimosa tree (Acacia decurrens), exudes an exquisite floral bouquet imbued with sweet, powdery, and subtly woody undertones. This alluring scent has positioned it as a coveted ingredient in both perfumery and aromatherapy realms. The Mimosa trees harnessed for our industry flourish in the wild, gracing us with their beauty. Their growth is observed predominantly in two key regions: Morocco and India, while historically, the heart of its origin lay near Grasse, France. Standing at a modest 2 to 6 metres in height, these trees undergo a transformative process each year. In Morocco, the blossoming spectacle unfolds from February to April, while in India, it takes centre stage in November, symbolising the triumphant departure of winter. The journey from blossoms to Mimosa absolute involves a meticulous procedure. Fresh flowers and leaves undergo a meticulous hexane wash, resulting in an exceedingly waxy concrete. This concrete then undergoes intricate processing to yield the coveted absolute—an endeavour known for its complexity. The yield, though high during the concrete stage at 110 kg from 1000 kg of flowers, sees a shift in the absolute stage, settling at a lower 27 kg from the same quantity. The locales of South France, India, and Morocco present distinct variations in both price and aroma profile. French Mimosa boasts the sweetest notes, Moroccan exudes a honey-like allure, and Indian resonates with the deepest floral richness. Our partner, MPE, stands as a global leader in the production of this exceptional product. We proudly offer Mimosa absolute from French, Moroccan, and Indian sources, catering to the diverse preferences of our valued customers. The pricing mentioned is for Indian origin, please contact us for pricing for other origins.

Common Uses

Mimosa  lends a soft, delicate, and romantic floral aroma to perfumes, bringing a sense of femininity and elegance. It blends well with other floral notes and can add depth and complexity to a fragrance. Mimosa is occasionally used in skincare products due to its aromatic properties and potential skin benefits. It can be found in facial creams, lotions, and serums, where it adds a pleasant scent and provides a soothing and calming effect. However, it’s important to note that mimosa absolute is primarily used for its fragrance and is not a primary skincare ingredient.
