Hand made, from flowers-grown to bottle-filled, right here at our lilac farm in upstate NY at the foothills of the Adirondack mountains. We revitalized the all but vanished technique of Enfleurage, thereby capturing the tiny sweet vapors from a thousand lilac florets in each ml of lilac Enfleurage essence.

Traditional Enfleurage - artisan extraction method. I do not use steam distillation, it is too hot and destroys the lilac essence. The method I use has at least two phases. The first phase is I extract the lilac onto a layer of vegetable fat in the age old process known as enfleurage. This involves allowing the flowers to rest on the fat that has in this case, been infused with sandalwood, I perform as many as 60 daily flower exchanges over a period of 28 days of bloom time. This produces a lightly fragrant pomade. The second phase is extracting the lilac and sandalwood absolute from the pomade. This is where I have developed a unique cold distillation process, using cool temperatures so as to not ruin the lilac essence. I use all organic materials to do this, first dissolving the lilac and sandalwood pomade in organic alcohol and allowing it to migrate into the alcohol over a period of months. then I freeze the suspension in a freezer at 20 degrees F or less, in order to remove all the fat from the extrait. I use a highly specialized filtration process, and perform the freeze/filter cycle three times. then I cold distill the extrait which takes about five hours to produce one batch of approximately 5 ml, one teaspoon, if I am continuously pure of heart and mind throughout the process, and the goddesses are smiling upon me. You can attend one of my workshops to see the whole process, or visit my you tube site 'CharlePan' for videos on how to do it. I am very transparent in my processes and love to turn on other perfumers and chemists to The Art of Enfleurage. I am also writing a book by that name, to be published soon!

Please note, real lilac essence is going to be much lighter and softer and more intimate and private than a synthetic lilac fragrance. 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. My lilac perfume oil is an Attar of real lilac essential oil 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, maybe 7 hours. That is very long for a natural scent apparently. Still 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.
