Honeysuckle absolute from Lonicera japonica is gently extracted from fresh blossoms, because the delicate flowers wilt under a still's heat. The result is nectarous, lush, and green-floral, like the living vine, with a soft jasmine-adjacent warmth.
Absolute, not distilled The blossoms collapse under still heat, so extraction preserves the nectar-sweet aromatics that distillation would destroy.

Frequently Asked Questions
How is this honeysuckle oil graded? ▾
Honeysuckle Absolute is sold as botanical grade. We publish a Certificate of Analysis for it, and if you want specifics beyond what is listed on the page, contact us and we will gladly talk it through before you order.
Which honeysuckle is this, and how is it different from other honeysuckle products? ▾
This is Lonicera japonica, bottled as an absolute made from fresh blossoms. Some honeysuckle oils on the market are infusions or blends built on a carrier, so read labels closely wherever you shop and compare what each product actually is.
What does honeysuckle absolute smell like, and what does it blend with? ▾
It is nectarous, lush, and green-floral, sweet like the living vine with a soft jasmine-adjacent warmth. As a heart note it pairs nicely with citrus, neroli, ylang, and light woods, and a trace amount can perfume an entire blend.
How do I dilute it for skin use? ▾
For skin use, dilute to between 0.5% and 2% in a carrier oil such as jojoba or fractionated coconut, and patch test first. A trace goes a long way in body oils, lotions, solid perfumes, and hair mists. Keep it away from eyes.
What sizes do you offer, and do you sell wholesale? ▾
There are nine 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, and 400 lbs. Formulators, makers, resellers, and wholesale buyers are welcome at any size.
How does per-ounce pricing change across sizes? ▾
Per-ounce cost falls steadily as you move up in size. The largest size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the smallest bottle, so anyone who uses honeysuckle regularly saves considerably by stepping up.
Is documentation included with bulk orders? ▾
Yes. Every size is covered by the site's published Certificate of Analysis. If you need anything further for a bulk order, contact us before ordering and we will tell you what we can provide.
Which size should I choose? ▾
Start with 0.5 oz or 1 oz to learn how the scent behaves in a blend. The 2 oz and 4 oz bottles suit regular perfume and body oil batches, 8 oz and 16 oz suit makers producing for sale, and 5 lbs and up is for formulators and resellers.
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, and you are welcome to contact us with questions about large orders first.
Why is honeysuckle sold as an absolute instead of a distilled oil? ▾
The flowers collapse under the heat of a still and yield no meaningful essential oil. Extraction preserves the nectar-sweet aromatics that distillation would destroy, and it takes an enormous harvest of blooms to make each bottle.
