In July 2017 Charle-Pan cracked the code. For the first time in more than 100 years, Lilac Essential Oil is available from the ancient artisan process of Enfleurage.
In addition to our Lilac Pomade, we are now extracting the oil of lilac from the pomade on site in our own studio. Our 33 day Enfleurage Pomade of Lilac is extracted to yield Lilac Quintessence or what some may call Essential Oil of Lilac. It is estimated that 16 bushels of flowers go into one half ounce of Lilac Essential Oil. The smell is authentic, exquisite and intoxicating. Lilac Enfleurage is a cold process using fresh flowers, so the result is a living lilac essence. For more info on Living Lilac Essence and Why it’s different…

Cherry Valley Lilacs is pleased to announce our first batch of Lilac Essential Oil. What a rare treasure it is. We want to thank Enfleurage Aromatics in New York City for working with us to help make this possible. Also to Carlos at Esencialife, Columbia South America for producing such a gem of a product.
Our Lilac Beauty Secret, is made through the ancient process of Enfleurage. A hand crafted pomade is created through 33 consecutive days of fresh flower changes. The lilac scent is exhaled from the flowers into a bed of sustainably sourced and organically grown palm kernel oil.
Palm kernel oil is naturally high in vitamin E, tocotrenols and is packed with anti-oxidants.
Dear Charle-Pan,
I am thrilled to have the sample you sent and keep it on my desk where I often sniff it simply for pleasure. It is a delight and I am truly grateful for the work you are doing. A lilac extraction is a dream come true.
