Lilac Flower CO₂ Absolute is an exquisite and rare extract — a fragrant tribute to the elegance and renewal of springtime.
Harvested from the tender lilac blooms of Syringa vulgaris, this extract captures the true fragrance of the flower — fresh, creamy, green, and softly powdery, with subtle hints of honey and wood.

Unlike traditional solvent-based lilac absolutes (which are often reconstructed from synthetic isolates), the CO₂ extraction method preserves the full aromatic complexity of the living blossom.
The result is a pure, authentic lilac aroma that mirrors the natural scent of the flower itself, carrying both fresh green lightness and romantic depth.

This is the true essence of lilac, refined into an aromatic concentrate of grace, nostalgia, and emotional serenity.

The lilac shrubs used for CO₂ extraction are cultivated sustainably in Europe and the Mediterranean basin.
The CO₂ process is environmentally responsible — using no chemical solvents or high heat, ensuring the extract remains pure, biodegradable, and eco-friendly.

Each kilogram of CO₂ extract requires hundreds of fresh lilac blossoms, harvested by hand at dawn to preserve their fragrance.
Producers ensure ethical labor practices and sustainable cultivation of this rare and precious flower.


Aroma and Olfactory Profile: 

The scent of Lilac Flower CO₂ Absolute is elegant, soft, and harmoniously balanced.

Top Notes: Green, dewy floral, fresh and airy.

Heart Notes: Sweet creamy lilac, honeyed and velvety.

Base Notes: Powdery, musky, lightly woody.

Its fragrance evokes freshly bloomed lilacs after morning rain, with nuances of jasmine, hyacinth, and soft heliotrope.
It’s at once clean and sensual, combining floral innocence with mature sophistication.

In perfumery, lilac is used to evoke purity, romance, and nostalgia, often serving as a centerpiece in spring or floral bouquets.
The CO₂ version, with its natural authenticity, delivers a truer, more enduring floral complexity than synthetic replicas.


Chemical Composition: 

Through supercritical CO₂ extraction, lilac’s complex aromatic profile is preserved in its full spectrum — capturing volatile esters, floral aldehydes, and phenolic compounds that define its delicate yet lingering scent.

Typical composition includes:

Linalool & Linalyl acetate: Floral-citrus freshness

Benzyl alcohol & Benzyl acetate: Sweetness and diffusion

Phenylethyl alcohol: Rose-like warmth and elegance

Methyl anthranilate & Indole: Floral depth and creamy sensuality

Coumarins & Fatty acids: Smooth powdery undertone


This balanced chemistry gives the extract its refined floral heart, soft creamy body, and gentle, lasting sillage.
