Juniper CO2 Extract 5 g

A resinous forest note that bridges skincare, perfumery and flavoring

Juniper CO2 extract is obtained through liquefied carbon dioxide extraction of the berries and needles, a method that preserves a remarkably wide range of volatile and resinous compounds without the heat damage typical of steam distillation. The result is a concentrate that carries the full, recognizable forest-and-berry character of the plant along with its natural active complex. This item belongs to the CO2 Extracts section, which brings together concentrated botanical extracts used across cosmetic, food and industrial production lines.

Global demand for juniper CO2 extract comes from several industries at once. In cosmetics and perfumery it is valued as a natural coniferous note for masculine and unisex fragrance blends, and it also appears in toning body care lines, aftershave gels, and formulations aimed at oily or blemish-prone skin thanks to its refreshing character. In the food and beverage sector, juniper CO2 extract has a long history in gin production, bitters, tinctures and certain marinades, where even a trace amount delivers the distinctive resinous berry note associated with the botanical. A further application area is household chemistry and air care, where the extract is used in home fragrance products, sachets and diffuser blends because of its persistent, well-rounded scent profile.

Typical usage levels in cosmetic formulations range from 0.1 to 0.5 percent of total batch weight, while perfumery dosage is adjusted individually depending on how prominent the coniferous note should be within the overall composition, and food applications rely on minimal trace amounts due to the extract's high concentration of active compounds. It is best added at the final stage of production, once the base has cooled below 40-45 degrees Celsius, which protects the volatile fraction from thermal breakdown and preserves the aromatic profile. Juniper extract pairs well with other CO2 botanicals, such as Rosemary CO2 Extract, which reinforces the toning effect of a blend, and Sage CO2 Extract, which adds herbal depth to the overall scent. For lighter, fresher formulations, formulators often combine it with Parsley CO2 Extract, which softens the resinous edge and rounds out the composition.

The 5 gram packaging is intended for home-based formulation work, small test batches and early-stage recipe development, making it a practical choice for anyone exploring how concentrated CO2 extracts behave in a specific formula before committing to a larger production run. Store the extract in its tightly sealed original container, in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight and heat sources, to prevent premature oxidation and loss of aroma. Under proper storage conditions the extract retains its properties for an extended period without quality loss.

Refreshing after-shower body mist

Distilled water 80 ml

Solubilizer 5 ml

Juniper CO2 Extract 0.3 g

Sage CO2 Extract 0.2 g

Mix the solubilizer with both CO2 extracts in a small glass container until the mixture becomes clear, then slowly add the distilled water while stirring gently to avoid excessive foaming. Pour the finished blend into a fine-mist spray bottle and let it rest for a few hours at room temperature so the aromatic compounds distribute evenly before the first use as a light, refreshing body spray.
