Aromatic Profile
Its aromatic profile is equally captivating—deep, tannic, slightly sweet, woody, and subtly earthy, with hints of dried fruit and malted warmth. This layered olfactory structure makes it a prized ingredient among perfumers and creators of botanical fragrances.
Formulation Notes
Walnut Leaves CO₂ Total Extract pairs well with green tea CO₂, black tea CO₂, oakmoss-style accords, cedarwood, vetiver, patchouli, black spruce, frankincense, myrrh, benzoin, lavender, clary sage, Roman chamomile, bergamot mint, rosemary, and soft woods.
Its deep leaf-like character works especially well in forest-inspired skincare, herbal grooming oils, botanical scalp products, dark green perfume concepts, earthy tea accords, and natural formulations with a refined apothecary aesthetic.
Because this is a total CO₂ extract, it may contain waxes, pigments, and naturally occurring insoluble fractions. Gentle warming and pre-dilution in a compatible carrier oil can improve handling. Test the material in the final base for color, clarity, odor, and long-term stability before production.
Best For
Botanical skincare, hair oils, scalp treatments, beard oils, herbal body oils, deep green cosmetic concepts, tea-inspired formulas, forest-inspired perfume accords, artisan salves, and luxury botanical formulations.
Traditional & Botanical Context
Walnut leaves have a long history of use in European botanical traditions and have been valued for their naturally deep green character and high botanical complexity. In cosmetic formulas, the extract offers an earthy, herbal identity that can add depth to oil-based products and botanical rituals.
Important Aroma Note
This is a natural CO₂ total extract, not a fragrance oil or a standard water-based walnut leaf extract.
Its aroma is subtle but distinctive: dry, green, leafy, and slightly bitter. The final scent, color, and behavior may vary according to leaf maturity, harvest season, extraction parameters, and batch age.

- Non-toxic and non-sensitizing; safe for topical use.
- Store in a cool, dark environment to prevent oxidation.
