We are thrilled to announce that our precious Blue Lotus absolute oil, which is hexane-free, is now available in a base of organic Jojoba oil at a concentration of 10%. Blue Lotus absolute oil is one of the rarest and most sought-after oils globally, especially by enthusiasts and connoisseurs. The extraction process of this delicate and complex oil requires a skilled artisan producer to extract it into an absolute, ensuring that all of its complex aromatics remain intact without using hexane.
Blue Lotus, also known as Nymphaea caerulea, is an uncommon water lily found in the same botanical family as Nelumbo nucifera, commonly called the actual Lotus. The elongated and pointed petals of Blue Lotus give it a unique visual characteristic that distinguishes it from other lotus flowers and water lilies. In India, the Blue Lotus is an esteemed flower known as the Sacred Blue Lotus, revered for its spiritual and medicinal properties. Our team searched high and low across Asia to find a unique organically grown Nymphaea caerulea extraction that is hexane-free, thus ensuring that you receive the highest quality Blue Lotus oil. We are confident you will be delighted with our hexane-free Blue Lotus absolute 10% dilution in organic Jojoba Golden oil.
This extremely rare absolute was produced using a hexane-free solvent and sourced from an artisan producer in Thailand who specializes in making premium aromatics in small batches. We sampled this batch during a trip to Thailand in December 2019 and were utterly blown away by its complex floral, sweet, aquatic aromatics. In December 2021, we met again with the producer and decided to re-stock. Blue Lotus Absolute is so complex and tenacious that it can hold its own as a single-ingredient fragrance. One drop and this divine floral opens like a blossoming flower, unveiling its euphorically sweet top note that weaves deeply throughout the powdery middle note and tenacious dry down. To lift the more delicate notes to the forefront, it’s recommended that Blue Lotus Absolute be strongly diluted in base oil. This Blue Lotus Absolute is highly potent and robust, indicating its superior extraction. It can be overpowering if undiluted. Because of its vast aromatic complexity, Blue Lotus blends well with practically everything: citrus, florals, spices, mints, woods, and resins. It particularly augments other green florals and uplifts herbaceous notes with a sophisticated and chic aquatic accord — use sparingly.
Blue Lotus Absolute contains soothing properties, which make it useful as a sleep aid, natural anti-anxiety aid, stress reliever, aphrodisiac, and to calm muscle spasms. In skin care, Blue Lotus has offered pronounced relief to dry, flaky, and inflamed skin, providing intense moisture while balancing sebum.
