Functional value in formulations
The oil-soluble concentrate delivers a stable rose-mint note suitable for balancing and toning cosmetic products. It serves as botanical raw material for dietary supplements and the food industry, including drinks, confectionery and functional foods. Private formulators and factories source it worldwide in wholesale and retail quantities to maintain consistent production batches without reformulation for different volumes.
Applications across industries
In cosmetic emulsions and serums the extract provides refreshing and comforting properties for mature or oily skin types. In perfumery it forms the base for floral-woody accords. For supplement and food manufacturers it acts as a natural flavor component in blends and functional products. It pairs well with other CO2 extracts in complex anti-aging or nourishing formulas and finds use in home fragrance sprays and diffusers as a replacement for synthetic scents.
Recommended dosage and incorporation
Input percentage ranges from 0.01-2 % into the active phase. Add during the cooling stage below 40 °C to preserve volatile components. The material is oil-soluble only and should be tested for compatibility with other ingredients in laboratory conditions prior to full-scale production.
