MORE INFOS:

There is not such a thing as a pure essential oil of Lilly of the Valley from the Convallaria majalis herbaceous plant. Simply because its aromatic compounds are too fragile to extract or distillate successfully. Perfumer have been able to simulate the scent of Lilly of the Valley since the early 18” s by blending essential oils and absolutes from other plants. Lily of the Valley flowers scent was a favourite of Christian Dior who used it as an inspiration to create the now classic Diorissimo Parfum and eau de Toilette.

Here's a breakdown of Lily Absolute and Lily of the Valley Absolute, clarifying their differences, scents, and roles in perfumery:

Lily Absolute

• Botanical Origin: While it's often just called "lily absolute," it usually comes from Lilium auratum, the Golden-rayed Lily of Japan, or other varieties of true lilies in the genus Lilium.
• Scent Profile: Rich, intensely floral, warm, slightly spicy, and heady. It has hints of honey and a balsamic undertone.

• Role in Perfumery: Lily absolute is a luxurious and complex floral heart note. It adds opulence and a narcotic sweetness to fragrances. It's often used in classic-style floral perfumes or opulent oriental fragrances.

   

Lily of the Valley Absolute

• Botanical Origin: Derived from Convallaria majalis, a completely different plant than true lilies.
• Scent Profile: Fresh, green, sweet, slightly watery floral with a delicate, ethereal quality. It has a touch of citrus and a soapy nuance.
• Role in Perfumery: Lily of the Valley is a unique top note that adds a springtime freshness and an airy floral touch. It's frequently used in feminine, clean, and classic floral perfumes.

Key Differences to Avoid Confusion

• Botanical Species: True lily absolute comes from the Lilium genus, while Lily of the Valley is derived from a different plant altogether.
• Scent Character: Lily is richly floral, warm, and heady. Lily of the Valley is a delicate, fresh, and green floral.
• Perfumery Roles: Lily is used for luxurious heart notes, while Lily of the Valley is best for airy top notes.
•  

Important Note:  Lily of the Valley is quite difficult to extract as a natural absolute,
