茉莉花
Floral, sweet, fruity, animalic.
With elegantly curved leaves and petals of delicate white porcelain, the fragility of this flower contrasts with the astonishing power of its scent.
Also known as “The Flower,” Jasmine enhances floral top and middle notes and helps give a complex and refined structure to perfumes.
dsm-firmenich sources Jasmine grandiflorum from India and Egypt, with a small scale sourcing in Grasse. Egypt is the world leader of Jasmine (grandiflorum), representing 60% of the market share, and India the remaining 40%. The worldwide production of Grandiflorum jasmine concrete is around 16 MT. The harvest process begins with hand-picking the flowers early in the morning before the sun drives away the aroma.
Egypt
Our partners in Egypt relies mainly on their own plantation for flower production. All of their jasmine fields are located in the Nile delta where rich soils allow record flower yields. Our suppliers allow high quality control during the whole process, with good transparency and traceability. The majority of the Jasmine grandiflorum extracted by our suppliers comes from their own fields, if needed they purchase additional flowers from local farmers.
