OUR FARMS IN EGYPT

From Egyptian Soil to Global Industries

At Navié, we believe that the highest quality natural ingredients begin at the source. Our agricultural operations are based in Egypt, where many of our botanical raw materials are cultivated directly on our farms under natural organic conditions.

Operating from Norway through our company The Collection AS, Navié connects global industries with the rich agricultural resources of Egypt. By controlling cultivation and working closely with local agricultural specialists, we ensure that our products maintain exceptional purity, aromatic quality, and traceability.

Egypt has been known for thousands of years as one of the most important regions in the world for cultivating aromatic plants, medicinal herbs, and botanical ingredients. The country’s warm climate, fertile soil, and long tradition of botanical farming create ideal conditions for growing plants rich in natural oils, fragrances, and beneficial compounds.

Organic Cultivation

All plants grown on our farms follow natural and organic cultivation practices, without synthetic pesticides or chemical fertilizers. This allows the plants to develop their true aromatic and medicinal properties while protecting the surrounding environment.

Our farming process includes:

• natural cultivation methods

• careful plant selection

• harvesting at optimal maturity

• traditional drying techniques

• controlled processing and extraction

This approach ensures that our botanical materials maintain their natural aroma, color, and active compounds, which are essential for industries such as perfumery, cosmetics, and herbal products.

Flower Cultivation for Natural Perfume Ingredients

One of the most valuable crops grown on our farms is Egyptian jasmine, which is considered one of the most prized natural ingredients used in perfumery.

Jasminum grandiflorum

The delicate jasmine flowers are harvested early in the morning when their fragrance is at its most intense. Immediately after harvesting, the flowers are processed through traditional extraction methods to produce jasmine concret and jasmine absolute, preserving the true essence of the flower.

These materials are widely used by perfume houses and fragrance laboratories worldwide to create luxury perfumes and fragrance compositions.

Botanical Extraction

In addition to cultivation, Navié participates in the extraction and transformation of flowers and aromatic plants into natural botanical extracts such as:

• floral concretes

• absolutes

• essential oils

• aromatic plant extracts

This farm-to-extraction approach ensures that the natural fragrance and chemical composition of the plants are preserved at the highest quality level.

Organic Aloe Vera Cultivation

Navié also cultivates organic Aloe Vera on our farms in Egypt.

Aloe vera

Aloe Vera is one of the most widely used botanical ingredients in the world and is highly valued in industries such as:

• skincare and cosmetics

• pharmaceutical products

• wellness and health products

The gel extracted from Aloe Vera leaves is known for its hydrating, soothing, and regenerative properties, making it a key ingredient in many natural formulations.

Our Aloe Vera is supplied in bulk quantities for industrial extraction and manufacturing.

Organic Medicinal Herbs

In addition to aromatic flowers and Aloe Vera, our farms produce a wide range of organic Egyptian herbs, including:

Chamomile
Hibiscus
Peppermint
Spearmint
Basil
Marjoram
Licorice Root
Senna
Fennel Seeds
Anise Seeds

These herbs are widely used in herbal teas, food production, natural medicine, and wellness products.

A Bridge Between Egypt and the World

Through Navié and The Collection AS in Norway, our goal is to build a bridge between Egypt’s natural agricultural resources and international industries.

By combining direct farming, botanical expertise, and Scandinavian business standards, we provide companies worldwide with reliable access to premium organic botanical ingredients.

WHY EGYPTIAN JASMINE IS THE BEST IN THE WORLD

The Jewel of Natural Perfumery

Among all natural perfume ingredients, Egyptian jasmine is considered one of the most luxurious and valuable materials used in fine perfumery.

Derived from the flowers of Jasminum grandiflorum, Egyptian jasmine is widely recognized by perfumers as one of the finest jasmine varieties available globally.

Its fragrance is rich, warm, floral, and slightly sweet, with a sensual character that adds depth and elegance to perfume compositions.

Ideal Growing Conditions

Egypt provides ideal conditions for cultivating jasmine due to its:

• warm climate

• fertile soil

• abundant sunlight

• traditional farming knowledge

These conditions allow jasmine plants to produce flowers with high concentrations of aromatic molecules, which are essential for creating high-quality perfume extracts.

From Flower to Absolute

The process of creating natural jasmine perfume ingredients is delicate and labor-intensive.

Fresh jasmine flowers are harvested by hand early in the morning when their fragrance is at its peak. The flowers are then processed to produce jasmine concret, a wax-like aromatic extract that captures the natural scent of the flower.

Through further purification, the concret is transformed into jasmine absolute, one of the most precious materials used in luxury perfumery.

Jasmine absolute is widely used by perfumers to create:

• floral perfumes

• oriental fragrances

• luxury fragrance compositions

Its rich aroma helps add depth, sensuality, and elegance to perfumes.

A Signature Ingredient in Luxury Perfume

Many of the world’s most iconic perfumes rely on jasmine as a central ingredient. Perfumers value jasmine for its ability to blend beautifully with other floral, woody, and oriental notes.

Because of its exceptional quality, Egyptian jasmine continues to be one of the most sought-after natural fragrance ingredients in the global perfume industry.

Navié – From Our Farms to the Perfume World

At Navié, jasmine flowers cultivated on our farms in Egypt are carefully harvested and processed to produce high-quality jasmine concret and jasmine absolute, supplying perfume houses and fragrance manufacturers worldwide.

Through The Collection AS in Norway, we bring this extraordinary natural ingredient from the fields of Egypt to the global fragrance industry.
