Jasmine DEC Abs MD opens with intensely sweet, narcotic white floral character—immediately recognisable as true jasmine. Rich fruity-banana facets emerge alongside the heady floral notes, while warm indolic undertones provide the carnal, sensual depth that defines this material. A herbaceous-tea quality and subtle clove-like spiciness add complexity that synthetic jasmine bases cannot replicate. This decolourised absolute from LMR (Laboratoire Monique Rémy, now part of IFF) represents the pinnacle of jasmine extraction technology. The "DEC" indicates decolourisation via molecular distillation—a technique pioneered by Monique Rémy herself to remove colour while preserving the full olfactory profile. The "MD" confirms molecular distillation processing. This yields a pale, workable material rather than the typical dark reddish-brown of standard jasmine absolute, making it invaluable for light-coloured formulations without sacrificing any aromatic richness. Indian jasmine (Jasminum grandiflorum) from Tamil Nadu delivers exceptional quality—richer and denser than Egyptian material with pronounced musky-coumarin undertones. Eight million hand-picked flowers yield just one kilogram of absolute, explaining both its cost and its irreplaceable value. The substantivity ensures your jasmine heart persists beautifully into the drydown. Blend with rose, ylang-ylang, tuberose, and sandalwood for classic floral orientals. If the cost of the natural oil is too prohibitive, we also sell the finest jasmine grandiflorum replacer on the market: Jasmin Imperial. We also stock French Jasmine absolute from Grasse, Jasmine Sambac Absolute, Egyptian Jasmine Absolute, and, as mentioned above, we also have Indian Jasmine Absolute from MANE, and Floral Concept's classic signature Indian Absolute.
