Fenugreek Absolute has a very intriguing aroma, fresh, slightly bitter, heavy and quite spicy at the same time. The oil is distilled from the seeds by both steam and solvents, in this instance our Fenugreek is solvent extracted and this results in a more precise aroma to the plant when in its natural state as none of the water soluble compounds are lost. It is a very masculine aroma and would be a useful addition for the natural perfumer wanting to create a manly scent.
Botanical Name: Trigonella Foenum Graecum

Origin: Egypt

In aromatherapy and in my opinion it has to be diluted down and used solely in massage (accounting for between 0.25% - 1% of any massage blend as the aroma is so intense and I would not encourage this on an oil burner.

The main use is to treat stomach upsets, something Fenugreek has a proven history of in the middle eastern countries. Fenugreek is useful in a blend for treating stomach upsets and generally ridding infection such as coughs and colds.

Blended with Turmeric and Coriander the smell is pleasant and the results are almost instantaneous as these 3 essential oils have in excess of 300 components and the synergistic effects are truly outstanding

Safety Data: May cause skin irritation. Dilute well before use. Avoid use during pregnancy.
