Called the Healer of Broken Hearts, our lilac perfume is deep, sensuous and complex. Alchemically transforming, empowering, it has the ability to uplift us from the depths of winter and thrust us into our imagination, with the light, soft, moistness of Spring.

Please note the size you are ordering. The smaller size bottle is blue in color and has a roller ball top and contains 2 ml

PLEASE NOTE:, real lilac enfleurage is going to be much lighter and softer and more intimate and private than a synthetic lilac fragrance. Do not expect lilac enfleurage to smell anything like a department store perfume. In fact many people find it to be too light and almost undetectable, because, for a variety of reasons, we have become desensitized to smell, accustomed to the fragrance assault of overpowering and overwhelming artificial scent, smoke, pollution, dryer sheets, and other strong odors in our everyday environments.

Our Lilac Essential Oil Absolute is extracted from flowers, never wood, leaves or stems. The natural lilac note is present throughout the dry down in our lilac perfume.

Authentic Lilac Enfleurage Perfume Oil...Exquisite authenticity in this organic blend of floral essences. The Lilac Perfume Oil contains more than 88% pure Enfleurage of Lilac extracted through the ancient process of Enfleurage. White lilac Enfleurage gives the perfume a more jasmine like note. Sister Justina lilac gives the Jasmine like scent, a graceful white lilac we grow. Each ml of lilac oil is extracted from the nectar of a thousand flowers...each flower hand picked with a prayer of gratitude.

Delightfully floral and uplifting for the Spirit. This Lilac enfleurage absolute used in the perfume is made by cold extraction methods from our 33 day lilac Enfleurage pomade.

We have revived the ancient tradition of Enfleurage. Fresh lilacs exhale into chassis filled with organic sustainably sourced vegetable fats. After 33 days of fresh flower changes, the fragrant pomade is harvested and put into jars of organic cane spirits. The pomade soaks for several months. During this time the pomade releases its absorbed lilac essence into the spirits. Then the spirits are gently evaporated at low temperature and the original living scent compounds of the lilac flower are extracted.

The enfleurage is a return to capturing the actual scent emitted by the flower. It is not a distillate but more of a condensate and therefore the fragrance is a true profile of the atomized aromatics of the flower...It is a true lilac scent, does not hang heavy in the air but stays intimate to the warm skin of the wearer. It may be used on its own as a singular note perfume, or as an anointment in meditation and journeying. Lilac Enfleurage essence may also be blended with other natural scents as it is here, in this ethereal and rare Lilac Blossom Perfume.

Enfleurage is the French term for an ancient, labor intensive, and all-but vanished, technique in which a fat is used to absorb scent from fresh exhaling flowers. Enfleurage captures the most delicate components of scent and the most comprehensive spectrum of scent molecules. Lilac does not lend itself to distillation and other methods collect only fractions of the scent and leave behind or destroy certain elements. Traditional Enfleurage yields the most authentic essential oil of lilac.

This Lilac Perfume is a finished product, a blend made from the authentic essential oil absolute extract of lilac that we create with natural enfleurage. The perfume contains a natural fixative, Vitamin E, that extends its shelf life. It is not 100% lilac absolute. The lilac perfume oil contains a drop of Grand Duke Jasmine Enfleurage and a drop of Rose Enfleurage oil. For perfumers and aromatherapists, please contact me or find my other listing for the 100% raw material, lilac essential oil absolute, also made via the ancient technique of enfleurage…

Our Lilac Enfleurage is made from lilacs: Maiden’s Blush, Sweetheart, Konchkalovsky, Frank’s Fancy, Paul Thirion, Burgundy Queen, Royalty, Palibin, Charles Joli, President Lincoln, Elenor Roosevelt, President Grevy, Miss Kim, Pocahontas, Brent’s Beauty, Miss Canada, Peace, Wedgewood Blue, Dappled Dawn, Sensation, Josie, Monge, Alice Mae, Mrs. Havermeyer, Emile Lemoine, Amy Schott, Agincourt Beauty, Crepuscule, Sara Sands and Donald Wyman, Violeta, Flora, Vesper’s Song, Silverking, and Arch McKean. Each year the scent will vary slightly in accordance with which lilacs are the colossal bloomers that year. More than 40 bushels of fresh flowers go into producing 5ml of Lilac Enfleurage extract.

Our delicate lilac essence by itself may be used as an exquisite stand alone natural perfume, or as an ingredient in blending with other natural scents. It is a powerful heart opener, teletransporter and memory inducer in the limbic pathways of the brain. It is living lilac essence, never ‘cooked’ at high temps as in steam distillation.

PLEASE NOTE:

Real lilac essence is going to be much lighter and softer and more intimate and private than a synthetic lilac fragrance. It will be nowhere near the strength of the synthetics. Many people have become anosmic to enfleurage and cannot smell it even if they tried….we have become desensitized due to many factors such as strong synthetics in our everyday environments, pollution, cigarette smoking, and mineral deficiency….if you are expecting a strong scent or anything like a department store fragrance, YOU WILL be disappointed…Please do not order this product.

This is a once in a lifetime opportunity. Most people have never experienced a real lilac perfume.

It is said of natural perfumes, “the scent is for her and her intimate few” it is not meant to be trailing or make a statement, or be detected prior to your arrival in the room or after your departure. While the lilac essential oil is more longer lasting and has a wider cloud or aura, than the pomade, it is fleeting and may only last a few hours on an individual’s skin. My lilac perfume oil is a blend of real lilac essential oil absolute blended with a bit of my pure jasmine and rose essential oils. Customers find it is the strongest of all my scent products, and lasts the longest on the skin.

Please Note: If you are expecting to be bowled over by the smell, and hoping to make a grand statement with your scent, I think you may be happier trying one of the many really nice synthetic lilac fragrances out there. Some of which, are really good fakes. My products are used by skin care, aromatherapy and perfume companies all over the world, for their authenticity and therapeutic qualities. Therapeutic properties are not present in the synthetics.

My lilac essential oil absolute is extracted from fresh lilacs via the Enfleurage process. It is not a CO2 extraction.

Lilac Blossom Perfume Lilac Essential Oil Absolute Perfume Oil is the essence of Lilac captured in a bottle.

Thank you for your support and appreciation of this ancient craft.

Enfleurage 🌸

Like any artist, I do my work out of an overwhelming desire to express what is contained deep within me. All orders of Lilac Absolute Essential Oil are made to order. It is of my utmost pleasures in the world to prepare this unique and scarce product. It is the tiny breaths of flower whispers, captured in a bottle. I love it dearly and I love to share the experience of the authentic … but, before I expend my precious energies and the precious energies of my beloved flowers, please consider…

Enfleurage is by nature, ephemeral, fleeting, and very light. The pomade captures the quintessential spirit of the flower as it exhales onto a thin layer of fat. There it is held fresh until I extract the lilac absolute essential oil from the fragrant pomade. The essence enters our nostrils, our lungs and our bloodstream, it affects our psyche and changes our being through its authentic flower wisdom. The enfleuraged product does not last long on the skin in comparison to other absolutes, essential oils or department store perfumes. It is ghostly and unusual in every way. It is so rare, I am the only one in the world who makes the real extraction of lilac.

What you are purchasing from me is enfleurage. I make two main products from Lilacs, first the Lilac Enfleurage Pomade, a fragrant creamy moisturizer and lilac skincare treatment, the second product I extract from the lilac pomade is Lilac Absolute Essential Oil …It is a hand made artisan product. It takes time to make and is very precious. It is something that is extremely rare and very expensive. It is not a mainstream product and I can only make a finite amount each year. The May 2022 Better Homes and Gardens article about me, “Heaven Scent” has brought my products to the mainstream however and the average mainstream person may not appreciate the nuanced and delicate scent of enfleurage. Please take note, I cannot refund your purchase simply because it does not smell as you might have imagined, or because it is such a small size, or seems like it is too expensive. I do encourage you to contemplate and consider, read and learn about the art form, Enfleurage, before you order. Note that it is a gamble in many ways. You may not like it, you may be expecting something different, it might not suit your taste, you might not even be able to smell it. Alas, yes, some people are anosmic to the light live scent of enfleurage. Please try the smallest amount available first, then let me know if you have fallen in love, awakened a childhood memory, cried, laughed, or maybe had the first good night’s sleep in a long time from your experience with my enfleurage, then you may order the larger size…

We travel to take care of our Jasmine, Gardenia, and other tropical gardens in the winter after putting our lilacs to bed. And so will be returning to our lilac farm in New York State, in April each year before the bloom.

Lilac season at Cherry Valley Lilacs begins Mother’s Day in May and is spectacular, swift and brief, lasting until the first or second week of June. We do Enfleurage starting in early May with Viburnum, Hyacinth, and Paperwhites, then lilacs in Mid May, with Sweet English Violets, and finish up the season Enfleuraging with Mock Orange and Peonies in late June.

We are a small family farm, open for visitors Mothers Day through Mid June 10-4pm, please call ahead… and we are always available by appointment. You can visit and take the historic educational lilac tour, witness active live enfleurage going on inside the Perfumery. Stroll through the fields with more than 150 varieties of the most fragrant blooming lilacs, in a special treat we call “Lilac Bathing”…. You can purchase lilacs to plant in your garden in our lilac nursery where we grow as many as 60 different cultivars for sale. We also have several workshops each year, for which you can sign up. Our Complete Enfleurage Kit for do-it-yourself Enfleurage is available all year long. Purchase of the Enfleurage Kit comes with my self published How To book, and a full day workshop at the farm or free technical assistance in a video call, or an option for ten hours of CEUs for aromatherapists.

I practice Enfleurage as my primary form of scent extraction, here at Cherry Valley Lilacs. It is my focal jewel, concentrating my efforts to bring the artisan craft to the world of natural perfumery and skin care.

Currently, Cherry Valley Lilacs is the world’s only wholesale supplier of Lilac Enfleurage Absolute Essential Oil and Lilac Enfleurage Organic Pomade, our clients are skin care companies and perfume makers in several countries. This offering allows the retail customer, the small perfumer, aromatherapist, and the natural products formulator to access this rare and amazing ingredient in samples and small quantities, without having to place a large wholesale order. All lilac absolute essential oil is slowly and painstakingly made to order from our stores of lilac pomade, so please allow 2-3 weeks lead time, especially for larger orders.

An energetic healer of the heart, mind, and spirit, Organic Lilac Enfleurage, is a harbinger of joy, calm, and healing golden amber light.

As the gentle Enfleurage absorbs the quintessence of the flower, its ethereal qualities evoke soul memories of our ancestors, birth and rebirth. Lilac is a symbol for kindness and compassion, and brings a feeling of vernal playfulness. It is our belief that we need more of this in the world today.

Recently we have begun full scale Enfleurage of Grand Duke Jasmine, Gardenia, Plumaria, and Tuberose in Mexico and Bali. All organic and sustainably produced tropical floral pomades and absolute oils from Enfleurage will be available in addition to our Lilac, Peony, Hyacinth, and Sweet English Violet Enfleurage products in the coming months.

I have also begun my own small retail products line of perfume oils, serums, and floral butters. Over time you will see these products offered here. Please inquire for larger wholesale orders and professional samples, blending ideas and detailed product specifications.

Come for a visit!

Thank you kindly,
