Because the oils from blossoms such as jasmine, gardenia, tuberose, and violet are destroyed or lost during steam distillation, a process termed enfleurage has been used. The blossoms are placed in contact with purified fats, which become saturated with the odorous oils. Extraction with alcohol then removes the oils from the fats. 4, record 1, English, - enfleurage

Procédé d'extraction à froid des essences végétales, souvent de prix. Il consiste à recueillir le parfum sur des plateaux disposés en chicane et contenant de la graisse de bœuf purifiée; au-dessus de chaque plateau se trouve un treillage métallique destiné à recevoir les fleurs. On fait passer, en vase clos, un courant d'air très lent qui, plus ou moins saturé du parfum des fleurs, vient lécher la surface de la graisse de bœuf laquelle s'empare très facilement de l'essence. Quand on estime que les fleurs sont épuisées, on les renouvelle, jusqu'à ce que la graisse soit saturée d'essence. Cette dernière est extraite au moyen d'alcool qui s'en empare. On traite ainsi les fleurs de jasmin, de réséda, de tubéreuse, de jonquille, de rose... et l'on obtient ainsi des parfums non dénaturés par la distillation à la vapeur d'eau [...] 3, record 1, French, - enfleurage
