"Oh, look," said Polly, "the mimosa's out, how lovely. Let's go and smell it." They headed over and as they got closer the scent of the fluffy yellow blooms filled the air.

They call it silver wattle.” ~Maggie Alderson, The Scent of You How vivid, still, are the seagoing smells? …a shift of wind might gently lay its hand on a cheek and turn your head like a weathervane, pointing your nostrils into the smell of unseen land: forest and rot and copra, jasmine, mimosa and ylang-ylang. And you may have thought of the strangeness of it, sitting there in night's scented cocoon, propped up by nails and timber in the middle of the water...”~James Hamilton-Paterson, The Great Deep: The Sea and its Thresholds An absolute is created by using a solvent to pull the precious plant aromatics from the plant matter. The solvent is then allowed to evaporate leaving behind a beautifully aromatic and highly concentrated absolute that’s fragrant molecules are generally enjoyed through inhalation to transport emotions, mind, memories, creativity, concentration, imagination, and meditation across secular thresholds into the sea of cosmic waveforms. The scent story of absolutes unfolds in colognes and perfumes, inhalation mediations, and ambient diffusion infusions rather than the focus of skin care.
