    Yes, same vendor. Yes, the frankincense smells fantastic. I enjoy handling the tears and smelling the aroma at room temperature

    Dear Rai, I admire your inexhaustible sense of adventure. Always exploring, always discovering.

    Eo Vs Absolute, Jasmine

    Magical? :Cautious::rolleyes: There is differentiation in process and in standard. Clearly, you are not that interested in accuracy, which makes me wonder why you've argued this far... This has been a good waste of time :D, you'd make an excellent troll :Roflmao:. Hopefully, someone out...

    Eo Vs Absolute, Jasmine

    The point is you are loosely interpreting the definition. Such misinterpretations or shifted views, are better left to unscrupulous business men. Personally, I think it is irresponsible to propagate misinformation. If you think that, then we will never agree. :D A concrete is an extract...

    Eo Vs Absolute, Jasmine

    Nope, and no I don't. Essential Oil product obtained from a natural raw material of plant origin, by steam distillation, by mechanical processes from the epicarp of citrus fruits, or by dry distillation, after separation of the aqueous phase — if any — by physical processes Note 1 to entry: The...

    Eo Vs Absolute, Jasmine

    Yet people are asking directly and I still don't see an answer. Unless 'North India' is as specific as your answer gets. You're wrong.

    Eo Vs Absolute, Jasmine

    Nope. Also, my reading comprehension is excellent. I didn't say yours was the best either, but as you said you had sniffed a great Jasmine Ruh lately, I asked the source of the product. Is it a secret?

    Which we agreed on. Looking forward to find out who supplies this great Jasmine Ruh you've smelt

    Eo Vs Absolute, Jasmine

    Your definition? There is a definition in the book you are reading. Exactly, most probably his own term, or an obsolete one, and used because it is not an essential oil. Nonetheless, at least it is descriptive and helpful in defining. 100% I'm glad you managed to find something so...

    Eo Vs Absolute, Jasmine

    You are wrong. An essential oil has a precise definition. I never said jasmine essential oils don't exist, I said they are impractical and expensive, and of poorer aromatic quality than the absolute. I also said that I'm naturally suspicious of jasmine essential oil offerings, That A and M...

    Eo Vs Absolute, Jasmine

    Yes, I don't want anyone to ever feel the need to write such disclaimers. When perhaps one day you experience a musk absolute, inshallah, then you'll be able to make that comparison. Yes, for about 20 seconds :D Then this sharpness forever evaporates. It is not about contrary choices, but...

    Io's Musk Attars (al Mashriq, Al Maghrib) & Oud Oils ( Assam Leather, Hoi An)

    Obviously! No one need ever qualify their views or reviews, it goes without saying that they represent personal tastes and perceptions. Exactly. Tinctures are actually considerably softer than any essential oil. Also, you have an unfair bias againts absolutes :D. With regard to perfumery...

    Oud of the Day

    Snap! Amen brother! I find seasonality less restricting than most. I prefer fragrance in the warmer months. It gets plenty hot around here. When it is too stuffy and too hot, I avoid over-strong perfumes, and heavy gourmand/orientals, feels like they choke you on days like that, otherwise...

    Nice article, thanks. "Actually, if we had to choose one and just one analysis to perform on an essential oil, this would probably be the GC."
