LINDEN BLOSSOM ABSOLUTETilia cordata Solvent Extracted from Blossoms, France Wonderful...the scent of Spring! |
||||||||||||||||||||||

Linden's aroma is a beautiful, sweet, light floral. If Rose is a mature woman, then Linden is a young maiden. Colleen K. Dodt says it is a necessity in her "grief" blend (which, by the way, is beautiful.) My friend Harriet, my expert on the vibrational effects of the oils, says that Linden is the scent of hope. Also available in a 10% dilution. Wonderful, alone or in blends, for reducing tension. Robert Tisserand cites it in blends to detoxify and decongest the skin. Some authorities call this lovely essence "Lime Blossom", but it has no relation to the citrus family. Blends with: Frankincense, Geranium, Jasmine, Rose Absolute, Rose Otto, Tuberose, Lemon, Orange, Mandarin, Neroli, Petitgrain, Sandalwood, Clove, Ylang Ylang, Black Pepper and Ginger. |

QUALITY WARNING: This is a lovely Linden Blossom
Absolute. One prominent essential oil
chemist asked me for a sample because he had heard we had a nice one,
and he's researching Linden. He called me back saying it was a stunning
specimen, best he had ever experienced. BUT-- at least two other essential oil chemists have recently
said that there
is NO authentic Linden Blossom Absolute being produced today. So...I
don't know! I am attempting to trace down the truth about this
delightful
absolute, but so far have not been able to do so. The bottom line is, I
do NOT know whether this Linden Blossom is what it is supposed to be. I
can not offer our standard guarantee of purity for it. Yet every time I take it out of our catalogue
I get a flood of requests to find more. Our clients love it.
So I'm just posting this caveat to let you know it may or may not be
authentic.
One thing I do know... properly diluted, it is a lovely, young and innocent floral. |
