Our Products
Absolutes

Unlike essential oils which are distilled through steam, absolute oils are obtained via solvent extraction. This complex chemical process yields in an oil with a very potent and highly-concentrated aromatic profile, perfect for perfumes, fragrances and other products.
Absolutes come from a select plant, each providing its own unique fragrant qualities. From the sweet through to the intensely fruity, woody or floral, look no further than the O&3 range for innovative, highly-functional absolute oils.
Many plants do not take steam distillation well, which means they need to be extracted using solvent baths. This gives access to a wider range of unique, potent aromas — one big benefit of absolutes.
