We’ve perfected our own in-house CO2 extraction of honeysuckle oil to capture the delicate, elusive aroma of rare flowers that don’t respond well to steam distillation. Left too long in that process, they yield very little essential oil, turn to mush, and lose their fragile floral scent. We source these blooms from Rimmon Farms, with some gathered from a friend’s property in the northernmost city, Tel Dan, Israel. I was genuinely amazed by how deep and vibrant the tenacity of the aroma of this oil was after extraction, truly an OMG moment.
This Honeysuckle Essential Oil comes as an CO2 Extraction of organic wild-harvested blossoms macerated is long-lasting in smell. The aroma of this oil is a soft but slightly sharp powdery aroma with green sweet floral notes. True honeysuckle is a heady aroma. This oil is of very high quality that blends very well with Sandalwood oil and Ylang Ylang and citrus essential oils. Extracted from flowers. Natural Perfumiest and Formulators alike love this one so much that it is extremely hard to keep in stock.
The sweet and deep tangy scent of Honeysuckle, carried on a warm summer night breeze, is one of the most delightful experiences of the Summer and early Fall Season. Strongest at night in order to attract pollinating moths, this scent is a happy addition to any garden. Our honeysuckles begin blooming in late spring and end in early Fall.

Lonicera caprifolium is the safest of all honeysuckle varieties. Steer clear of the Lonicera japonica variety from China, as it can cause mild to severe side effects like gastrointestinal upset if consumed in large amounts and skin sensitivities such as a severe rash. Its leaves are toxic and can lead to much more serious problems. Plus, it’s considered invasive in many areas, which can cause ecological issues. Always make sure to choose Lonicera caprifolium when buying honeysuckle.
