Guest guest Posted December 15, 2007 Report Share Posted December 15, 2007 I really enjoyed the thread on Lime eo.... Has anyone here been incorporating floral waxes.... I bought in a whole lot of different kinds and I am playing with them at present. Great for soaps apparently altho I havn't used them in that yet.... and in solids for which I am enjoying at present. I find them adding something else to the overall perfume depending on what you want to bring out ... a rather nice subtlety... the rose and jasmine waxes are just lovely ... I am intrigued by the different textures of wax depending on the plant it comes from... For example. the jasmine grandiflorum is very waxy and bendy , the rose and tuberose hard .... clary sage and violet leaf powdery....wild chamomile dark hard and brittle has anyone else noticed this?

I have a few also........ Jasmines, champaca..... Source is Liberty...... I've been cursed, though..... The times I've tried to order their orange flower or frangipani have been to no avail... Bad timing on my part....out of stock..... In essence....the waxes are the part that the absolute doesn't have..... One Christmas I gave small pieces of Jasmine Grandi wax to lady friends as a gift for their significant others..... Rub it on.....he'll like it...... For close encounters of the intimate kind....<G>.... -- W. Bourbonais L'Hermite Aromatique A.J.P. (GIA) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bourbonais I havn't seen the champaca..... bet that is rather beautiful.....I really like them... and am thinking laterally about them <G> I managed to purchase some orange flower which is gawjus from someones private stock for which I was very grateful and totally worth it... and again v v different from the others almost concrete like in its appearance...

(GIA) =============================== We have a really lovely soap with rice bran oil and jasmine wax (among other things). It's actually a really good seller with men. The jasmine wax really holds up great in the soap. Elise http://www.tambela.com --------------------------------- Never miss a thing. Make your homepage.
