Absolute oils are the essential oils which are highly concentrated and have high potency. These Concentrated absolute oils have high aromatic properties thus they are majorly preferred in cosmetics, perfumery, and aromatherapy. During the postproduction processes these oils are further concentrated to make their absolute.
There are approximately 95 species of Boronia (Family Rutaceae), all but one of which occurred originally only in Australia. The majority of Boronia species are found in south-western Australia. The Brown Boronia (Boronia megastigma) is intensely fragrant (like Freesia and Osmanthus) and is valued in Australian floral arrangements for its intense aroma. The fragrance of B. megastigma is not as appreciated in the rest of Asia. Brown Boronia is produced almost exclusively in the area of Australia depicted. Boronia megastigma Nees. (Brown boronia) flowers are the source of the highly valued oil, boronia absolute.
Boronia Absolute is used primarily within perfumery and fragrance applications. Due to Boronia's high cost and reportedly frequent adulteration, Boronia Absolute isn't commonly used within holistic aromatherapy. However, true Boronia Absolute possesses a beautiful, intoxicating, floral aroma with a sweet and fruity.
The absolute is used primarily in food flavoring to impart a unique richness to many fruit essences. It has a very richly intense flowery scent, with a slight dry fruity undertone explaining its main uses being in perfume, fragrance and aromatics.
