Aromatic Profile

Aroma and Olfactory Profile:

The aroma of Robinia pseudoacacia flower CO₂ extract is an exquisite floral symphony luminous yet comforting, like warm spring air passing through a blooming grove.

• Top Notes: green floral, slightly citrus, fresh honey nectar
• Heart Notes: deep floral, reminiscent of jasmine and orange blossom, creamy and sweet
• Base Notes: soft balsamic, vanillic, and powdery

Its scent feels like sunlight filtered through petals — radiant, sensual, and meditative. In perfumery, it behaves as a heart to base note, offering smooth diffusion and long-lasting warmth.

Chemistry

The supercritical CO₂ extraction technique preserves volatile aromatic molecules in their natural ratios, maintaining both top and base notes of the flower.

This method avoids heat degradation and solvent residues, yielding a product closer to the raw botanical fragrance.

Typical chemical constituents include:

• Benzyl alcohol.
• Phenylethyl alcohol.
• Linalool.
• Farnesol.
• Methyl anthranilate.
• Geraniol.
• Indole traces.
• Coumarin (natural fixative and sweet base tone).

This complex synergy gives the oil its sensual, floral-honey depth and its soothing, balancing properties in aromatherapy and skincare.

Applications

• Natural perfume oils and fragrance compositions
• Compatible aromatic balms or oil-based preparations, at an assessed dilution
• Evaluate a small diluted trial before building the final fragrance

Safety

• Always patch test before topical use.
• Use in dilutions no greater than 2% in leave-on skin care.
• Use Amber, Cobalt or Miron violet glass bottles to protect from light degradation.
• Avoid ingestion unless under expert supervision.
• Pregnancy, young children, or sensitive skin users should consult a qualified practitioner.
