Tuberose Absolute

Product Overview

From the heart of Kannauj, India — the Perfume Capital of India — Shiva Exports India presents our premium Tuberose Absolute (Polianthes tuberosa), an exquisite, highly coveted white flower absolute renowned for its complex, narcotic, and deeply sensual aroma. We bridge Kannauj’s centuries-old artisanal distillation heritage with modern, state-of-the-art solvent extraction techniques to isolate the pure, volatile essence of hand-picked, night-blooming tuberose blossoms. This therapeutic and perfumery-grade absolute meets the exacting standards of international fragrance houses and cosmetic formulators, offering unmatched olfactory depth, superior tenacity, and uncompromising botanical purity for high-end formulations.

🌿 Olfactory Profile & Applications

Tuberose Absolute possesses a highly complex, multi-dimensional olfactory profile that makes it a legendary perfume ingredient. As a master perfumer’s choice, it opens with fresh, green, and slightly medicinal top notes, which rapidly give way to an intoxicating, creamy, and exotic white floral heart. The dry-down reveals heavy, warm, and honey-like balsamic undertones with rich, lactonic warmth that provides exceptional natural fixative value in premium perfume making. Its primary applications include:

• Fine Fragrances: Acts as a powerful heart note and natural fixative in luxury oriental, floral, and chypre accords.
• Cosmetic Formulations: Utilized in premium anti-aging creams, luxury body serums, and high-end deodorants due to its skin-conditioning properties and intense floral scent.
• Aromatherapy: Valued for its ability to release deep emotional tension, ease nervous stress, and act as a potent natural aphrodisiac.
• Personal Care & Wellness: Enhances upscale soap manufacturing, luxury massage oils, and premium soy candle formulations with its long-lasting scent throw.

📖 Usage & Formulation Guide

Because of its immense aromatic strength, Tuberose Absolute must be handled with precision by cosmetic chemists and perfumers. Below are master-grade formulation recommendations:

• Fine Fragrance Accord (White Floral): Incorporate at 0.5% to 2.0% of your total fragrance concentrate. It pairs exquisitely with Jasmine Grandiflorum, Rose Otto, Ylang Ylang, Sandalwood, Peru Balsam, and Vetiver to create an intoxicating aroma.
• Premium Aromatherapy & Massage Oils: Dilute to a maximum of 0.1% to 0.5% in a stable carrier oil such as Jojoba or Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride. This equates to approximately 1 to 2 drops of absolute per 30ml of carrier oil.
• Luxury Skincare & Emulsions: Add at 0.05% to 0.1% during the cooling phase (below 40°C) of cream or lotion manufacturing to preserve the delicate volatile compounds.
• High-End Candle & Soap Making: Use a concentration of 0.1% to 0.5% in natural waxes or cold-process soap bases. Blend with natural modifiers like Sweet Orange or Bergamot to enhance top-note projection while maintaining the luxurious tuberose base.

❓ Frequently Asked Questions

Q: Is this Tuberose Absolute completely solvent-free?
A: Yes. While food-grade solvents are used in the initial extraction of the concrete, the concrete is subsequently washed with pure organic alcohol to remove the plant waxes. The alcohol is then completely evaporated under a vacuum, leaving behind a pure, solvent-free, and highly concentrated absolute.

Q: Why is the absolute so thick, and how should it be poured?
A: Due to its high concentration of natural plant waxes and heavy aromatic esters, Tuberose Absolute is highly viscous and may semi-solidify at cooler temperatures. Before formulation, gently warm the sealed container in a warm water bath (30°C to 35°C) for 10-15 minutes to restore its liquid state.

Q: What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for bulk orders?
A: To support both artisan perfumers and large-scale cosmetic manufacturers, our MOQ for premium absolutes begins at 100ml, with tiered volume discounts applied for orders of 1kg, 5kg, and above.
