MAGNOLIA (CHINA)

Magnolia from China can offer a full floral impression with noticeable fruitiness, green freshness and a light touch of spice. A documented Chinese flower oil has this combination, giving a more detailed picture than the idea of a uniformly creamy white flower. Depending on the surrounding notes, its fruit-and-petal character can feel rounded and sweet or fresher and greener.

LMR Naturals documents a magnolia oil made from Michelia alba flowers grown in China and processed by hydrodistillation, using water to distil their aroma. This is a specific natural material, distinct from oil made from magnolia leaves. The country label indicates origin; it does not identify every possible magnolia species, manufacturing method or scent variation. Nor does the note on a perfume page alone establish that this particular flower oil is in the formula.
