There is perhaps no Greek myth better known than the tale of Echo and Narcissus, so it follows suit that pure Narcissus poeticus remains one of the rarest, most sought-after absolutes in all the world. The scent of this absolute conjures forest-green scenes set against deep earthy-floral foliage.

“The Arabians considered it an aphrodisiac, and in India the oil is applied to the body before prayer in temples along with rose, sandalwood and jasmine. “
~ Julia Lawless, Aromatherapy and the Mind
 

“It is not only its price that determines the value of Narcissus absolute, but also the olfactory quality, and these factors determine the success of a perfume. The absolute is almost a perfume by itself. Its scent is rich and complex. In it, one can sometimes be reminded of the elusive fragrance of iris, rose, jasmine, tuberose, ylang, orange blossom, and oakmoss.”
~ Gordon R Hanks, editor, Narcissus and Daffodil: The Genus Narcissus
