Description

Our organic St. John's wort CO2 select extract for aromatherapy captures the aromatic substances of a herb of the species Hypericum perforatum in liquid form, and in international listings the product is known as St. John's Wort organic CO2 select extract for aromatherapy, a name that accompanies it in every transaction abroad. Cultivation follows organic practice, as the plantings go through the growing period without synthetic fertilizers and without chemical agents against weeds during the season. The fields of central Bulgaria provide the entire harvest. The Bulgarian flora includes twenty-two species of the genus, and five of them grow only within the borders of the country and nowhere else. The raw material comprises only the picked flowers of the flowering tops. Supercritical carbon dioxide extracts the volatile core from the dried flower mass. Without residual solvents the aroma remains true, which is why the final liquid keeps a profile close to the gathered corollas at every careful examination of the sample. The consistency remains liquid throughout the entire available volume. The strength of the aroma is moderate, and the soft presence lingers until the last moment of observation. The herbal base takes the lead, while the light floral and grassy notes remain behind it in the overall progression. The pigments of the petals outline a reddish-brown hue which, at a greater density of the sample, reaches a dark amber finish. Systematics assigns the species to the botanical family Hypericaceae among the flowering plants. The organic practice is reflected in the composition of plant substances. In addition, the organic St. John's wort select extract excludes preservatives and colorants.

Application

Organic St. John's wort CO2 select extract is added to massage oils, diffuser blends, scented candles, solid bath oils and air-freshening sprays. Its soft herbal aroma with light floral notes is suitable for evening routines and for blends intended to reduce tension after a busy day; added at a low concentration, it works as a background note without dominating. It combines well with lavender, bergamot and chamomile, as the aromas complement each other and the final blend acquires a fuller, rounder character. The extract is also used in inhalation compresses, where the warm steam enhances the feeling of deep relaxation. In solid bath oils it adds a warm, earthy nuance that holds the aroma longer than essential oils. The product is certified organic, with no added solvents or synthetic ingredients, which makes it easy to incorporate into organic formulations where the origin of every ingredient must be documented.

Storage

Store organic St. John's wort CO2 select extract in a dark, cool and dry place, away from direct sunlight and sources of heat. Store at a temperature of +5°C to +20°C to prevent oxidation and loss of beneficial properties. After opening, limit the amount of air in the package, and when the contents decrease, pour the remainder into a smaller, clean and dry bottle. Aluminum containers and dark glass are suitable for aromatherapy products, as they block light. Close the container tightly after each use and do not allow air and moisture to enter. The storage conditions determine the durability of the aroma and quality.
