Hi Jade, Thank you for the wonderful information! I just followed you on Instagram – oh my goodness, so much loveliness!! <3 I love that you make natural perfumes! That’s something my daughter & I have long been interested in. Looking forward to following your photos and posts! :)

Long time no chat, hope all is well with you and your family. I noticed that you mentioned in this post that you had trouble extracting gardenias. Totally agree that lilacs are very difficult (along with violets), to extract the scent. About the gardenias, the Natural Perfumer in me had to comment lol. I’ve extracted many different flowers for my perfumes, and Gardenia is one of the easiest to extract and most fragrant of the flowers I grow(besides the tuberose)! But there is a trick to it! Enfleurage! I have many post on my Instagram , @jadeforestco._ ,enfleuraging the gardenias. Check it out , I think it’s definitely some thing you’d be interested trying as I’m sure you have all the materials for enfleurage. Reach out if you need help! Xoxo, Jade
