What does this osmanthus absolute look like physically — appearance, color, and consistency at room temperature?
At room temperature this absolute is a viscous liquid to semi-solid paste, golden brown to dark amber in color, with a waxy texture typical of flower absolutes. Slight warming (30–40°C) returns it to a fully pourable liquid.
Physical Appearance
| Item | Specification |
|---|---|
| Appearance | Viscous liquid to semi-solid paste |
| Color | Golden brown to dark amber |
| State at 20°C | Semi-solid / thick liquid (varies by batch wax content) |
| Consistency | Wax-like, flowable when warmed |
- The amber depth varies naturally with harvest year and flower cultivar; both pale golden and deep amber tones fall within our release specification
- The natural waxes are removed by ethanol dewaxing during refining, keeping the product fully soluble in alcohol
- Reference standard GB 1886.265-2016 allows yellow-green to brown shades, so the observed color is normal and compliant
A physical sample plus high-resolution photos are available so your formulation team can verify appearance before ordering.
