Tiare Absolute (Tahitian Gardenia)

   Our Tiare Absolute, Aka known as Tahitian Gardenia, is organically extracted from fragrant flowers of the Gardenia Taitensis tropical shrub, growing on the hillsides of Tahiti, the largest of the French Polyneisan Islands.  In Tahiti, Tiare is the national symbol, celebrated as the flower of affection, worn during ceremonies by both male and female.  It has been used in perfumery for years and added to coconut oil to produce Monoi Tiare Tahiti oil also for perfumery.
