Jasmine absolute

Jasmine absolute is taken with alcohol from the concrete. Indole is the molecule the house names as jasmine’s signature; no analysis of the absolute is filed, so no share, rank or second constituent is given.

The page once gave a price per kilogram and a yield of flowers per gram of absolute; neither had a source and both were removed. The descriptors are the house’s own words.
