A whiff of prehistory A prehistoric flower native to Southeast Asia, magnolia has hundreds of species in a variety of colors and forms. A symbol of gratitude and purity in the Chinese tradition, this edible plant is used in cuisine as well as for its medicinal virtues. In perfumery, the flowers and the leaves can be steam-distilled to obtain essential oil, fruity and floral for the former, fresher and greener for the latter. Discover the thousand facets of this poetic flower by journeying through botany, history, ecology, agriculture and chemistry without overlooking, of course, perfume and perfumers. |
