Fenugreek Absolute LA 5282

Original designation: Fenugrec ABS Givaudan LA 5282

Trigonella foenum-graecum L.

Fenugreek absolute is gourmand before gourmand became a genre: maple, walnut, hay, tobacco and a curious curry-like heat. In trace amounts it can make sweetness feel ancient, savoury and wonderfully enigmatic.

Extraction & expression

Absolute extraction preserves a broad, saturated portrait of the source. Traditionally, fragrant biomass is first solvent-extracted and the resulting concrete or resinoid is purified with alcohol, giving perfumers a dense material rich in less-volatile facets.

Technology recorded for this material

  • Alcohol washing dissolves the aromatic fraction in ethanol, then uses chilling and filtration to separate waxes and heavier insolubles. This is a defining route from many concretes or resinoids to absolutes.

These process marks describe selective transformation. They can support a premium grade, but do not alone certify present condition, purity or universal superiority.
