How to make osmanthus sachets and keep their fragrance as much as possible?

One is direct osmanthus. Fresh osmanthus can't be used as a sachet. Osmanthus fragrans juice is easy to dye, but it can't be washed when it is dirty. Just make dried osmanthus. Many friends think it is very simple. They think it is ok to dry fresh osmanthus on the balcony. This method is absolutely wrong. Because osmanthus fragrans must be dried to remain fragrant, the dried osmanthus fragrans has no fragrance. Picking is also the key to making high-quality osmanthus. It should be harvested within 3 ~ 4 days after flowering. Osmanthus fragrans are usually picked in the morning, especially when there is some dew in the morning. Fresh sweet-scented osmanthus should be packed in breathable bamboo baskets, not too high, otherwise it will damage fresh sweet-scented osmanthus. Picked osmanthus should be processed into dried osmanthus in time. It should not be put for a long time to avoid excessive fragrance loss. The second method is to extract flower fragrance directly. Just like distillation, you can also put a large number of osmanthus petals in clear water, distill them with a distiller, extract the fragrance of flowers, and then drop them into tools such as flowers and trees and put them into sachets. You can also steam it with tasteless elm bark to make it absorb the smell of osmanthus, but I think it is more troublesome. Of course, osmanthus fragrans can also be used as the main raw material alone, and other spices such as borneol and aloe can be added to make sachets. You can have any flavor you like. But what matters is the quality of osmanthus.
