Mimosa was first brought to Europe at the end of the 17th century, starting first in Great Britain. It was the wealthy Anglo-Saxons that brought the plant with them on vacations in France in the 1860s. Spreading quickly along the Mediterranean coast near Menton, it even inspired one city to famously change its name to Bormes-Les-Mimosas, in honor of the beautiful yellow foliage decorating the local landscape.
Mimosa is a thorny shrub originating in Australia that is cultivated for its strongly perfumed round and pompom-like yellow flowers. Growing to heights of 2-10 meters, it is mainly cultivated in Southern France, Egypt, India and Morocco. Mimosa concrete is obtained from the fresh flowers, using a volatile solvent extraction process. The absolute is then produced by rinsing the concrete with alcohol.
