Jasmine wax is an aromatic substance produced by introduction of a solvent to the jasmine blossoms. To produce jasmine wax, jasmine blossoms are soaked in solvent to remove their color, fats and waxes. Once that is done, the solvent is removed, along with the spent blossoms, leaving behind an aromatic "concrete." The concrete is later treated to separate the solids from the liquids. The liquid is called jasmine "absolute," and the solid left behind after the absolute is removed from the concrete is the jasmine wax.
