White lotus absolute is captured from delicate petals by solvent extraction rather than steam, and it smells aquatic, honeyed, and serene. Watery green florals open over a warm, faintly spicy sweetness, settling into a soft leathery hush that suits quiet, meditative moments.
Petals, not steam: the blooms are too fragile for distillation, so careful solvent extraction is the way their scent is captured.
Botanical grade: sold under that grade, with our published COA available to read before you buy.
Ten sizes: from a 0.5 oz bottle for first-time sniffers up to 400 lbs for production-scale work.
White Lotus Essential Oil happily takes bulk orders. Every size, from 0.5 oz to 400 lbs, comes from the same standard, so a trial bottle and a 400 lb order match. Formulators, makers, and resellers are all welcome.
White lotus absolute is a concentrated botanical material. For skin use, dilute to 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil and patch test on a small area first. Keep away from eyes, children, and pets. Not for internal use. Store tightly closed in a cool, dark place.
Frequently Asked Questions
How pure is your white lotus absolute? ▾
It is sold as botanical grade. Our published Certificate of Analysis is there for you to read, and if you want specifics beyond it, contact us and we will gladly talk through what you need to know.
Which lotus is this, and is it the same as blue lotus? ▾
We list it by its common name, white lotus, and the exact botanical species is not specified on this page. Lotus and water-lily florals are often confused with one another, so if species matters for your formula, contact us before ordering.
What does white lotus absolute smell like, and what does it blend with? ▾
It smells aquatic, honeyed, and serene: watery green florals over a faintly spicy depth, with soft leathery notes. It is a meditative heart note that pairs well with sandalwood, frankincense, jasmine, and soft musks.
How should I dilute it for skin use? ▾
Dilute to 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil such as jojoba or fractionated coconut. That is roughly 3 to 12 drops per fluid ounce of carrier. Patch test first, and keep it away from eyes.
What sizes do you offer, and do you sell wholesale? ▾
There are ten sizes, from 0.5 oz to 400 lbs: 0.5 oz, 1 oz, 2 oz, 4 oz, 8 oz, 16 oz, 5 lbs, 25 lbs, 100 lbs, and 400 lbs. Wholesale buyers, makers, and resellers are welcome at every size.
Does the price per ounce drop at larger sizes? ▾
Yes. Per-ounce cost falls steadily as the size goes up, and the largest size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the smallest bottle. Pick the size that fits how much you will realistically use.
Do bulk orders come with lab documentation? ▾
Yes, every size is covered by the site's published Certificate of Analysis. If you need anything further for your records or your customers, please contact us before ordering and we will see what we can provide.
Which size should I choose? ▾
For a first encounter, the 0.5 oz or 1 oz bottle is plenty, since a little goes a long way. Regular perfumers and body-oil makers often prefer 2 oz to 8 oz, while soap, candle, and product makers look at 16 oz and above.
How fast do orders ship? ▾
Orders ship within 1 to 2 business days. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs and up may need extra handling, so allow a little additional time. Checkout is through our Shopify store, where you can choose your size and complete the order.
Why is white lotus absolute made by solvent extraction? ▾
The petals are too delicate to survive steam distillation, so solvent extraction is the only way to capture their scent. It also explains why an absolute is so precious: a kilogram represents an astonishing weight of flowers.
