Daffodil Absolute

About Daffodil Absolute

Daffodil absolute is a concentrated aromatic material obtained by solvent extraction from the flowers of the daffodil (Narcissus). Its scent is floral yet carries green and spicy nuances, setting it apart from other floral notes. In perfumery, it is used to impart a distinctive character and depth.

Scent Profile

The scent of daffodil absolute is intense and complex. The top notes reveal green, slightly bitter leafy facets, while the heart unfolds a rich floral reminiscent of jasmine and hyacinth. The base leaves earthy, spicy, and subtly animalic undertones. This multifaceted nature makes it a prized material for perfumers.

Use in Perfumery

Daffodil absolute is primarily used in the heart or base notes of fine fragrances. Due to its strong character, it makes its presence felt even in small amounts, adding depth and an oriental nuance to floral bouquets. It can also be combined with green or spicy notes to create more complex compositions.
