Vetiver Co2

Vetiver CO2 extract is a highly valued ingredient in perfumery and aromatherapy, derived from the roots of the vetiver plant (Vetiveria zizanoides). This extraction method, using carbon dioxide, helps in retaining more of the aromatic oils and active compounds compared to traditional methods like steam distillation.

The scent profile of vetiver CO2 is complex, deep, and earthy. It boasts a rich, woody base with subtle, inherent sweetness and a hint of smokiness. Often described as having notes of damp earth, vetiver also carries undertones of green freshness, reminiscent of roots and wet soil. This makes vetiver CO2 a versatile ingredient, lending a grounding, stabilizing aroma that can add depth and sophistication to a fragrance blend.

Further, its aroma has been appreciated for its calming and soothing properties, making it a favorite in formulations aimed at relaxation and stress relief. Vetiver's fixative qualities also enhance the longevity of other more volatile scents in perfumes, making it an indispensable ingredient in the palette of natural perfumery.
