Pink Lotus Absolute is a solvent-extracted absolute from Nelumbo nucifera flowers, sourced from Sri Lanka, India or Thailand. The Pink Lotus has lived alongside humans for approximately 7,000 years and carries extraordinary biological characteristics including seed longevity of up to 1,300 years and rhizome viability of 50 years. In Ayurvedic tradition, the Pink Lotus is said to beckon the mind into stillness, clarity, and devotion, and its essence carries a long history of sacredness across Buddhist, Hindu, and ancient Egyptian contexts. The aroma is decadent, smooth and heavenly, and serves as a prized ingredient in botanical perfumery.

Pink Lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) and Blue Lotus (Nymphaea caerulea) are botanically distinct plants with different phytochemical profiles, aromatic characters, and traditional uses. Blue Lotus has a more intensely euphoric and sedating aromatic and ethnobotanical reputation, particularly in ancient Egyptian tradition. Pink Lotus tends to be associated with spiritual devotion, stillness, and sensual elevation. Both are featured prominently in EOW's catalog, and they are frequently combined in ceremonial blends.

Apply 1 to 3 drops into a warm bath for deep relaxation and stillness. Use as a personal perfume or anointing oil to initiate meditation or sacred ritual. It is noted as an exceptional addition to sacred sensual experiences when infused into an edible carrier oil at low concentrations. It also adds deep, regal character to botanical perfumes, particularly in combination with Rose Absolute, Blue Lotus Absolute, Frankincense Carterii CO2, Palo Santo, and Cassie Absolute. Pink Lotus Absolute is often thought to be a special addition to any botanical formulation, therapeutic or aromatic in nature, even at very small concentrations.

Yes, when used thoughtfully. It is not well documented for conventional medicinal use and is suggested primarily for botanical perfumery and decadent sensual application. Because it is a solvent-extracted absolute, follow standard absolute safety guidance and avoid use during pregnancy. Use at appropriate dilutions for leave-on skin applications.
