Description
Our natural basil essential oil for detergents from Greece is obtained from the plant with the botanical name Ocimum basilicum. In international practice, the product is offered under the name Basil natural essential oil for detergents. The product is a homogeneous liquid with a golden yellow colour. The golden yellow colour is explained by the stalk used, which, according to botanists' descriptions, enters the distillation process together with the leaves and flowering tops. The stalk gives the liquid its strong herbaceous-sweet aroma. The herbaceous-sweet aroma is due to linalool and eugenol, whose presence is confirmed by chemical studies of the distillates obtained from this botanical species. Linalool and eugenol remain in the oil after steam distillation. Steam distillation transfers only the volatile substances of the raw material, so the product's scent retains the purity of the plant's fresh aboveground material. The pure scent accompanies the oil's homogeneous liquid consistency. The consistency remains liquid, and the composition also contains no preservatives. The composition is based solely on the plant's essential oil fraction, which is why colourants and other added substances are entirely absent from the product offered. The pure composition results from the natural cultivation of the Greek crops. Natural cultivation takes place in Greece, whose warm Mediterranean climate suits species of the Lamiaceae family and supports the accumulation of essential oils. The crops in this Mediterranean country provide the stalks for the oil offered. The oil contains only substances formed by the plant itself during the growing season. The plant origin of each ingredient is evident in the product's olfactory profile.
