During the Process of creating an absolutes oil of these delicate flowers the natural solid wax from the plant is left behind. This is called floral wax. It retains a milder aroma than is found in the absolute, but its creamy texture makes it a desirable ingredient, a absolute must have no pun intended.

Floral waxes can be incorporated into creams, lotions, balms and solid perfumes. They tend to be very hard and can sometimes takes more time to coax the floral wax melt, but the effort can be so very much rewarding.
