Premium Frangipani Absolute for Professional Use
Frangipani Absolute is selected for its creamy floral richness, strong aroma, and distinctive tropical character. Solvent extracted from the delicate flowers of the frangipani plant, this golden yellow to deep amber aromatic material is valued in fine fragrance, luxury skincare, natural perfumery, and premium botanical formulations where an exotic floral note is desired.

Because Frangipani Absolute is exceptionally concentrated and aromatic, only a small amount is needed to bring depth, elegance, and a recognizable floral signature to a finished blend.
