Mimosa Absolute Oil Acacia decurrens.
Mimosa Absolute is diluted to 50% in Sunflower Oil because if it was left as 100% it would be a solid mass and therefore unusable. The fragrance of mimosa is so strong, that the dilution does not take away from its value as a fragrance but rather helps to make it less over-powering.
