Lady wants 100% Jasmine Oil

[cluelessdude]

Lady friend of mine says she wants to smell like jasmine all over. I've never smelt it so not sure if that's a good thing. Anyways, where can you find 100% jasmine oil natural online or in stores (Whole Foods?)?

What's this diffusing stuff about?

Jasmine is a beautiful scent, but jasmine absolute (a different form of extraction similar to an essential oil but produced by a different method, very time consuming and expensive) is one of the most expensive ones: from $1500 to $2500 per pound wholesale. You can get a tiny bottle of the absolute (I don't know if it's pure) from this company https://www.auracacia.com/dspCmnPrd.php?ct=anpceoeo&p=t&i=y&cn=Jasmine for around $45. I believe they are sold in health food stores like Whole Foods. Your lady friend can make a scented oil to use as a perfume by diluting the absolute in a carrier oil. There are some very nice jasmine fo's that are much less expensive and she could have jasmine soap, perfume, scented powder, bath oil, etc. at a fraction of the price.

I assume you're talking about an oil diffuser? That's a gadget that's used to spreading a scent in a room. Sometimes the desired scent is mixed into a particular type of diffusing liquid and put in a pretty bottle with some hollow reeds that wick the oil up and "diffuse" the smell into the air. Another kind uses a candle and a tiny bowl that's supported over it and you put a little water and few drops of the eo or fo in the it: the water heats up and releases the scent into the oil. There's an electrical version of the same thing that plugs into the wall socket, and there's a mist diffuser that is like a humidifier that scents the air. Is one of these what you meant?
