Tonka Bean Absolute is a highly sought-after substance due to its unique and alluring fragrance. It contains the highest concentration of natural coumarin among all absolutes and essential oils, which is responsible for its suave, honeyed caramel, and vanilla candy-like aroma. This exquisite perfume ingredient is particularly prized for its ability to add sensuality and depth of character to fragrance blends.
Our Tonka Bean Absolute is sourced from beans grown in Brazil and then extracted in Grasse, France, a region renowned for producing the finest fragrances. It is classified as an oriental note in perfumery, sharing many of the characteristics of tobacco and amber. Tonka bean pairs exceptionally well with other fragrance notes such as patchouli, sandalwood, rose, lemon peel, and lavender.
This premium quality Tonka Bean Absolute is a solid or semi-solid crystallized substance that requires warming to liquefy. Its luxurious and exotic fragrance makes it a highly desirable ingredient in the world of perfumery, and a must-have for discerning fragrance enthusiasts.
