About Henna Flower
Henna flower absolute is derived from the blossoms of Lawsonia inermis, the henna plant. While the leaves are widely known for their use as a dye and in body art, the flowers yield a fragrant absolute used in perfumery.
Scent Profile
The scent is sweet and delicately floral, with a subtle **tea**-like nuance that adds a refined, airy quality. A floral depth reminiscent of boronia sits alongside the sweetness, giving the material a more layered character.
Use in Perfumery
Henna flower absolute is used primarily as a middle note to add depth and a natural, slightly bitter-green shading to floral compositions. It blends well with rose and other floral materials, tempering their sweetness and enhancing complexity.
