Appearance

Honeysuckle Absolute is an orange-green to dark green or brownish, viscous liquid.

Odor

Its odor is intensely sweet, fatty-floral, somewhat reminiscent of jasmin absolute and of orange flower absolute. The sweetness is not unlike the nauseating sweetness of tuberose.

Uses in perfumery

The absolute has very little significance for the creative perfumer, but the honeysuckle type of floral fragrance is frequently used or requested by customers to the perfume houses.

Production

The flowers are extracted with petroleum ether to yield a concrete which, in turn, is further processed into an absolute by the conventional alcohol-washing method.
