The term 'absolute' refers to its extraction method, generally involving solvent extraction to yield a concentrated aromatic mixture. Zdravetz Absolute is recognized by its CAS number 92347-05-2 and is catalogued in databases such as PubChem. It is sourced from the leaves and flowering tops of Geranium macrorrhizum, primarily cultivated in Eastern Europe. This absolute is valued for its natural woody and floral complexity, finding application in a range of fragrance compositions.

Occurrence, Applicability & Potential Uses

This absolute occurs naturally in the leaves and flowers of Geranium macrorrhizum, a perennial herbaceous plant native to the Balkan region. Its woody and floral aroma profile makes it a preferred ingredient in fragrance agents, where it imparts green, herbal, and sweet woody facets. Zdravetz Absolute serves as a substitute for a variety of natural and synthetic odorants, adding depth and freshness to complex perfume formulations. In addition to perfumery, it has applications as a flavoring agent, although some regulatory constraints limit its use primarily to fragrances. The composition aligns with IFRA (Global) guidelines to ensure sustainable and safe incorporation into consumer products. Due to its solvent extraction method and inherent stability, it maintains olfactory integrity in diverse applications.

Physico-Chemical Properties Summary

Zdravetz Absolute is a viscous, oily material notable for its solubility in alcohol and compatible oils such as gurjun balsam oil, while being insoluble in water. It exhibits a relatively high flash point around 93°C (200°F), indicating moderate volatility under typical handling conditions. The absolute remains stable in various cosmetic matrices including creams, lotions, lipsticks, and powders without significant discoloration or degradation. Its woody, floral, and herbal odor profile reflects the presence of complex terpene and aromatic constituents. These physical and chemical characteristics contribute to its versatility as a fragrance material, enabling its use in diverse formulation types where solubility and stability are critical factors.
