Thyme Absolute

Thyme absolute is a concentrated, aromatic oil extracted from the herb Thymus vulgaris through a process of solvent extraction, which results in a highly potent essence. Typically thicker and darker than its essential oil counterpart, thyme absolute retains a more nuanced and fuller representation of the plant’s aromatic profile.

The scent profile of thyme absolute is rich and complex. It boasts a powerful, herbaceous fragrance that is deeply pervaded with earthy and slightly spicy undertones. Predominant notes include a sharp, almost medicinal quality, mellowed by warm, woody elements that evoke a sense of natural foliage. This aromatic complexity makes thyme absolute a valued ingredient in perfumery, particularly in crafting fragrances that aim to convey a fresh, botanical, and subtly robust character.

Used sparingly, it imparts a fresh verdancy to perfumes, blending exceptionally well with other herbal, citrus, and floral notes to create sophisticated, multi-layered scents. Its robust profile also lends itself well to aromatherapy and therapeutic products, promoting relaxation and a sense of wellbeing.
