JASMINE (MOROCCO)

Moroccan jasmine belongs to the rich floral world of jasmine, with the possibility of fruity, green and warmly indolic nuances. Indolic describes a deeper, slightly animalic aspect of the flower, which can give the floral impression more weight. The country name does not set a single balance between these facets or make the note inherently sweeter than jasmine from elsewhere.

Jasminum grandiflorum flowers from Morocco are documented among the sources used for jasmine absolute. An absolute is a concentrated extract obtained using solvents, distinct from a steam-distilled essential oil. Fragrance houses may combine jasmine from different origins: Sana Jardin lists Moroccan and Egyptian absolutes together, for example. Such choices shape the finished floral character.
