Tobacco Absolute (Nicotiana tabacum)

Description

• Contains no nicotine
• Solvent extracted leaves of ?nicotiana tabacum
• Dark, almost?black, viscous oil.
• Tobacco Absolute is a very tenacious, aromatic material that adds warmth, depth and character to natural perfumes, think of masculine and Oriental blends.
• Strong , rich, somewhat smoky/warm herbaceous odour profile.
• When diluted it will smell just like the fine tobacco your grandfather might have used.
• Not indicated for use in aromatherapy; useful primarily in high class perfumes.

Using tobacco as a meditation/prayer aid produces a very grounding and expansive energy flow, and a consciousness expansion that often brings visions and other divination or channels. It connects the Earth and Sky, or the material and spiritual worlds.

** It is important to note that all absolutes are extremely concentrated by nature. They should not be evaluated in this state unless you are accustomed to the undiluted fragrance. For those trying Absolutes for the first time, we strongly recommend they be evaluated in dilution. Otherwise, the complexity of the fragrance – particularly the rare and exotic notes – become lost.

Absolutes can be very viscous or even solid and can be difficult to extract from the bottle. Gently warming the absolute in a water bath will melt the product and make it easier to use.
