Jasmine Absolute from Mexico
Jasmine absolute is a premium solvent-extracted concentrate from jasmine flowers, prized in high-end fragrances for its intense, indolic aroma. Classified under HTS 3301.90.50.00 as an 'other' absolute, it excludes steam-distilled oils and fits the heading for concretes and absolutes. It's not mixed for retail but sold as a raw material for perfumery.

Import Tips
• Provide lab tests confirming solvent extraction to distinguish from concrete (dried enfleurage product)
• Label with botanical origin and extraction solvent to comply with FDA cosmetic ingredient rules
• Avoid bulk packaging over retail sizes if intended for consumer sale, as this may trigger 3307 classification
