Цікавий факт
In some Pacific island traditions, wearing a flower indicates relationship status. A flower worn on the left ear means the person is taken and on the right ear means available.
Отримання й хімія
Спосіб отримання
For monoï, tiaré flowers are macerated in refined coconut (coprah) oil for at least ten days, at a rate of at least ten flowers per litre of oil. This method is similar to enfleurage in perfumery. The flowers are picked at the bud stage and used fresh, within 24 hours of picking at the latest. The coconuts must have dried in the sun for at least a week before the oil is extracted. A hexane concrete of the flowers has also been prepared and analysed.

У парфумерії
Tiaré is used in niche perfumery, but its prohibitively high cost excludes it from commercial perfumery. A gardenia note is otherwise a re-creation from other materials, because gardenia flowers do not release a natural oil. In one natural gardenia perfume, tiare absolute is combined with jasmine grandiflorum absolute, benzyl acetate, castoreum, ethyl phenyl acetate and maltol. No PREMIEREPEAU fragrance currently features a dominant tiare note.
