The jewel of Grasse, where it is commonly called “the flower,” jasmine is native to India, its leading global producer today along with Egypt. Its tiny white flowers, fragile-looking but powerfully scented, yield an absolute with floral, warm, opulent, creamy and slightly animalic facets. Indispensable in grand classic florals, jasmine embodies a refined, voluptuous sensuality. Discover the many faces of this delicate flower by journeying through botany, gastronomy, history, agriculture and chemistry without overlooking, of course, perfume and perfumers.
