Jeanne Rose describes this Tuberose Oil as being close to the aroma of lilies, or of members of the freesia family. If I had to describe it I'd perhaps think of a blend of Jasmine Sambac, for the exotic notes, and Rose Otto for the intense floral. Tuberose Absolute is a must for anyone with an interest in perfumery, or a desire to experience new scents.
Some sources indicate that the oil might be effective in treating impotence or frigidity. I'm not sure of this, I know Rose Otto has proven effective in treating the latter, but the Tuberose might be worth trying. Emotionally, it is said to induce relaxation, and help in protecting personal energy and personal boundaries. The alleged relaxing reaction has not been my personal experience with this glorious oil, however.
Victoria, of Bois de Jasmine, writes of our Tuberose Absolute: "Your tuberose oil is simply magnificent, and I think that the next time I will splurge for undiluted extract."
It takes 3,600 pounds of blossoms to produce 1 pound of the absolute.
Available here as a 10% dilution in Fractionated Coconut Oil, or undiluted if you prefer.
