Jasmine grandiflorum - Essential Oil
Jasmine grandiflorum - Essential Oil
Jasmine, Organically Grown: India (Jasminum grandiflorum-Absolute)
The Jasmine grandiflorum oil comes from Jasmine flowers that blooms during the day and is considered the Royal Jasmine, not to be confused with any of the other two hundred Jasmine species. Traditionally Jasmine has been used to assist emotional balance, combat stress, and as an aphrodisiac.
Large amounts of early morning handpicked Jasmine flowers, over three million per pound of oil, are needed in order to extract the oil in significant batches. This makes the cost for pure therapeutic oil to be more expensive. Standard steam distillation does not work for extracting this oil because the steam causes the breakdown of many therapeutic chemicals contained in the plant. To obtain the full therapeutic chemical spectrum, the oil is normally extracted using hexane or ethanol.
