How we scored it
Supplied CosIng text is for 'Flower Extract', not 'Flower Wax' — likely a data mismatch; both are natural botanical fractions so NOI is 1.0 either way.
What counts. ISO 16128-2 scores the atoms that remain in the final ingredient. Reagents, solvents, catalysts and protecting groups used during manufacture leave no mass behind and are not counted.
Where it comes from
Obtained as the waxy concrete fraction from solvent-extracting Jasminum grandiflorum flowers. No synthetic route.
In plain English
A natural wax extracted from jasmine flowers, used mainly for its scent in fragrance blends. It's the waxy fraction left after solvent-extracting the flowers.
