Tuberose is believed to have originated in Mexico.\u003cbr\u003e\n It is a perennial plant up to 1 meter tall, with large white flowers. Botanists classify it in the Agavaceae family.\u003cbr\u003e \nAt the end of a long, erect stem, the delicate, star-shaped white flowers gather uniformly in clusters, releasing one of the most captivating scents in the plant world.\u003cbr\u003e\n Flower of lovers, aficionados, and newlyweds, it leaves behind an intoxicating and undeniably seductive aroma.\u003cbr\u003e\n Native to Mexico, the first tuberose bulbs were brought to France in 1530 by a French missionary, who is said to have secretly planted them in a monastic garden near Toulon.\u003cbr\u003e\n From there, tuberose spread throughout Provence, where it can still be found today.\u003cbr\u003e\n Currently, tuberose is widely cultivated in southern India, which boasts an ideal climate for this plant.\u003cbr\u003e\n Tuberose captured the attention of French perfumers for its unique scent, which is particularly intense in the flowers as they open, just before dawn.\u003cbr\u003e\n The first method to obtain tuberose essential oil was enfleurage.\u003cbr\u003e \nAt the beginning of the 20th century, extraction with petroleum ether was introduced.\u003cbr\u003e\n The resulting commercial product was tuberose concrete, which was transformed into absolute oil when necessary.\u003cbr\u003e\n The average yield of the concrete was 0.08%, from which up to a third of absolute oil could be extracted.\u003cbr\u003e\n This meant that to obtain 1 kg of absolute oil, 3.6 tons of tuberose flowers needed to be processed immediately after harvesting.\u003cbr\u003e\n At the end of the 20th century, in Grasse they began to use tuberose concretes from specific lots produced in Morocco or Egypt for the production of absolute oil.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"La Profumiera di Venezia by Irina Vaganova","offers":[{"title":"5 ml","offer_id":51169960427847,"sku":"tuberosa-5ml","price":6.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"10 ml","offer_id":51169960460615,"sku":"tuberosa-10ml","price":10.5,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"50 ml","offer_id":53889256915271,"sku":"tuberosa-50ml","price":28.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true},{"title":"100 ml","offer_id":53889256948039,"sku":"tuberosa-100ml","price":49.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0879\/9397\/5111\/files\/IMG_8652.jpg?v=1740746443","url":"https:\/\/store.profumieradivenezia.it\/en\/products\/tubereuse-base","provider":"La Profumiera di Venezia by Irina Vaganova","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
