This essence reflects the deep green scent of violet foliage, enriched with nuances of sweetness and earthiness. Its unique fragrance profile makes it a cherished ingredient in the world of perfumery, adding a complex depth to fragrance blends.
Production Process
The production of violet leaf absolute involves solvent extraction, which efficiently gathers the aromatic compounds from the leaves. This method ensures a high yield of essential oils while preserving their delicate constituents. After harvesting, the leaves undergo a process where they are combined with a solvent, allowing the fragrant components to dissolve. Once the extraction is complete, the solvent is removed, leaving behind the concentrated violet leaf absolute.
