origanum majorana herb oil iran

Origanum majorana herb oil Iran is an essential oil derived from sweet marjoram herbs, noted for its spicy odor and use in fragrance applications.

General Material Description

Origanum majorana herb oil Iran is an essential oil extracted from the aerial parts of the sweet marjoram plant, Origanum majorana L., belonging to the Labiatae family. This oil typically presents as a clear to pale yellow liquid with a distinctly spicy scent profile characteristic of marjoram. Known under several synonyms including sweet marjoram oil Iran and Origanum majorana L. herb oil, this material's chemical constituents contribute to its prominent organoleptic properties. Extracted through steam distillation methods, it is widely used in fragrance formulations. The chemical identity is well-documented in public chemical databases such as PubChem, providing standardized reference for research and industry use.

Occurrence, Applicability & Potential Uses

The sweet marjoram plant, from which this essential oil is derived, is native to regions including Iran and widely cultivated in temperate climates. The herb's oil is primarily valued for its spicy aroma and is applied extensively as a fragrance agent in cosmetic and perfuming products. The oil's usage complies with IFRA (Global) guidelines, which govern fragrance materials' safety and standards. It is important to note that this oil is not recommended for flavor use according to current safety assessments. Its solubility in alcohol facilitates its incorporation into various aromatic and cosmetic formulations.

Physico-Chemical Properties Summary

This essential oil is characterized by its solubility in alcohol and insolubility in water, reflecting its hydrophobic nature typical of many essential oils. Such properties influence its formulation compatibility, particularly in alcohol-based perfumes and scented preparations. The oil's volatile constituents contribute to the distinct spicy odor noted at concentrations near 100%. These physicochemical traits define its handling, storage, and application parameters within the fragrance industry.

FAQ

What is Origanum majorana herb oil Iran and how is it obtained?
Origanum majorana herb oil Iran is an essential oil derived from the herbs of the sweet marjoram plant, Origanum majorana L., part of the Labiatae family. It is obtained primarily via steam distillation of the aerial parts of the plant, yielding a clear liquid with a spicy aroma. This process selectively extracts volatile compounds responsible for its characteristic scent and fragrance properties.
In what applications is Origanum majorana herb oil Iran commonly used, and what are its solubility characteristics?
This oil is widely utilized as a fragrance agent in the cosmetic industry, valued for its spicy odor profile. It is soluble in alcohol but insoluble in water, which informs its typical use in alcohol-based perfuming products. These solubility properties define its compatibility in formulation systems, particularly those aimed at delivering scent in personal care and fragrance compositions.
What are the regulatory considerations and safety information associated with Origanum majorana herb oil Iran?
According to current hazard assessments aligned with OSHA HCS (US) standards, no specific classification or hazard statements apply to this substance. The International Fragrance Association (IFRA) provides guidelines restricting concentrations of certain components within the oil, with recommendations excluding its use as a flavoring agent. Safety data confirm the absence of classified dermal, oral, or inhalation toxicity, supporting its controlled use within regulated fragrance and perfuming applications.
