Frangipani is a fragrant flowering tree, also known as plumeria. The oil of the colorful flower, also known as the Hawaiian Lei flower, has been used in perfumery since the 16th century, usually as a top or heart note. The flowers from a frangipani tree are white, yellow, pink, or multi-color. The frangipani tree is native to warm tropical areas of the Pacific Islands, Caribbean, South America, and Mexico.

The frangipani body oil has a sophisticated, lush, rich floral fragrance. The flowers have been widely hybridized for cultivation, and there are many varieties available—each with its unique scent. Frangipani flowers may smell like roses, gardenias, pineapple, plum, citrus, ripe banana, grapes, coconut, ginger, candy, or spices. The flowers of the plant are also considered sacred in certain tropical nations such as Bali and India, where they are used in religious ceremonies.

The oil is called virgin because it is extracted from a single press from fresh coconut meat that is grated and dried for a couple of hours at a temperature lower than 40 degrees Celsius. Wet processing or centrifugal processing (used by several, cheaper brands) can also yield good quality, clear, Virgin coconut oil, but the moisture content is higher as the coconut milk is also used in the extraction. Due to this the oil has a tendency to turn rancid / fermented.

In the production of Bali virgin coconut oil the dry processing temperature is maintained at less than 40 degrees Celsius, so there is no chance for the aroma or coconut flavor (volatile molecules) to evaporate. Because the whole process is completed within a couple of hours, the chance for rancidity/fermentation is almost nil. If oil claims to be ‘pure’ or ‘virgin’ and organic, it must retain the smell of fresh coconuts. If it does not have this aroma, it cannot be a Virgin coconut oil. Three By One Coconut Oil has kept the fresh coconut aroma and taste. It is raw oil.
