The perforated tray, which contains the holes is placed at the upper part of the still and flowers and the plants which are used for preparing the perfumes are placed on the top of the dry and the below part is filled with the water which is used for boiling. Because of the boiling the steam is obtained. The steam now passes through the upper part of the tray and scent of flowers and the plants is being captured and is sent into the cooling equipment for cooling. Then by the process of refrigeration, the mixture is condensed. Thus the water and essential oils mixture is stored in bottles called Florentine flasks. Because of the variance in the densities of two liquids, these Florentine flasks have two separate liquids. Then the essential oils are raised to the surface and are used for the perfume preparation. The remaining scented waters which are being left after distillations are used for other purposes.

Absorption: It is used in coordination with the animal fat for absorbing the odors. There are two types of absorption hot and the cold absorptions.
