lavandin absolute decolorized

Lavandin absolute decolorized is an aromatic extract derived from Lavandula hydrida, a hybrid species within the lavender genus. It presents as a decolorized liquid characterized by herbal, sweet, and camphoreous odor notes typical of lavandin flowers. This compound belongs to the class of natural absolutes widely utilized in fragrance and flavor industries for its distinctive sensory profile. Known also under synonyms such as lavandula hydrida absolute decolorized, lavandin oil, and Abrial lavandin oil, it is documented within authoritative chemical databases like PubChem. The material is sourced through solvent extraction of fresh flowering tops of Lavandula hydrida, yielding a concentrated aromatic substance with specific organoleptic properties. Its use in various applications is supported by standardized production and characterization methods within the flavor and fragrance sector.

Lavandin absolute decolorized occurs naturally in the hybrid plant Lavandula hydrida, which is cultivated across multiple temperate regions for its aromatic crop. This absolute is extracted primarily for use as a flavor and fragrance agent, providing characteristic herbal and camphoraceous notes that enhance product complexity. Its application encompasses perfumery, cosmetics, and flavor formulations where herbal or floral aroma contributions are desirable. The compound is recognized and regulated under standards such as the IFRA (International Fragrance Association) Code of Practice (Global), ensuring its safe and defined use in consumer products. Its natural origin and sensory attributes make it a valuable material for blending and product development in aroma chemistry.

Lavandin absolute decolorized exhibits solubility in alcohol solvents, facilitating its incorporation into ethanol-based fragrance and flavor preparations, while being insoluble in water. This selective solubility affects its usability in different formulation matrices, guiding formulator choices. The substance’s aromatic profile is dominated by herbal sweetness with camphoreous undertones characteristic of lavandin flowers. The presence of volatile compounds contributing to this odor suggests moderate volatility and aromatic persistence. Its physical state as an absolute extract indicates a concentrated, viscous liquid with specific density and refractive index parameters relevant for quality control. These physicochemical properties collectively determine its handling, blending compatibility, and sensory performance in designed applications.
