Botanical informations

Botanical informations

Botanical name :

Salvia rosmarinus Spenn.
Synonyms : Rosmarinus officinalis L. // Rosmarinus angustifolius Mill.

Botanical profile :

Rosemary is a small shrub belonging to the Lamiaceae family and the genus Salvia L.
The Lamiaceae is one of the most important botanical family in perfumery, grouping together lavender, basil, mint, sage, rosemary, patchouli, and thyme.
Both rosemary and sage belong to the Salvia L. genus.

Chemotypes :

The Salvia L. genus includes a vast number of species, but only a small fraction of them are classified as rosemary.
It’s important to note that the reclassification of rosemary under Salvia L. is quite recent. That's why the former botanical name Rosmarinus officinalis L. is still commonly used, but is no longer considered asvalid.

In perfumery, several chemotypes have been identified within Salvia rosmarinus Spenn.:
– Camphor and Eucalyptol type
– Eucalyptol-only type
– Verbenone and Bornyl acetate type

Extractions & Uses

Extractions & Uses

Extraction process :

The leafy stems of rosemary form shrubs, with the appearance of floral tops indicating the start of the harvest—usually 8 to 9 months after planting. Stems are typically harvested twice during the first year (every 100 to 120 days), and between three to four times per year in subsequent years.

The rosemary stems are dried before distillation. The essential oil is then recovered through decantation after distillation, floating above the rosemary water. The yield ranges from 0.5% to 0.9%.

A CO2 extraction also exists (Rosemary SFE), as well as an absolute (Rosemary Absolute), with a yield of about 0.5% from fresh plant material. The company MANE also offers a quality known as Rosemary PURE JUNGLE ESSENCE™. These three extracts result in a green to brown paste-like product.

Uses in perfumery :

Used in men's eaux de toilette and toileteries.

Stability :

The terpenes identified in this raw material can polymerize when they are oxidized

Other comments :

There are many myths and legends about rosemary. Cultivated and used for a long time, this herb was considered as a sacred plant by the Chinese and the Greeks. In the Middle Ages, it was used as incense to drive away evil spirits and demons. Today, rosemary is above all a symbol of love and loyalty in the West. It is therefore common to come across it at weddings.

This EO is not recommended for pregnant and lactating women.
Adulteration is possible by adding Camphor, Borneol or synthetic Bornyl Acetate. More rarely, it is possible to observe adulterations by adding Eucalyptus EO.
