Celery Co2 Total Extract is an exceptional ingredient in natural perfumery. It is renowned for delivering a vibrant green spark that invigorates and elevates fragrance blends. Its aromatic profile is considerably more potent than that of traditional essential oils, so caution with dosage is vital. A little goes a long way, and due to its resilience, this extract can easily dominate lighter notes in a formulation.
This versatile extract is particularly valuable in creating aphrodisiac blends, where it harmonizes beautifully with Cardamom, enhancing the overall sensory experience. The extraction process utilizes the entire plant, including its aerial parts, resulting in a composition that contains less limonene compared to the essential oil. This reduction makes Celery Co2 safer for topical applications, significantly minimizing the risk of skin irritation.
In aromatherapy, Celery Co2 Total Extract is praised for its calming properties, which are beneficial for those suffering from tension headaches. Additionally, it possesses remarkable anti-inflammatory qualities, making it an excellent choice for massage blends aimed at alleviating symptoms associated with arthritis, rheumatism, and muscle spasms. Its combined anti-inflammatory and diuretic properties make it particularly effective in detoxification body wraps, offering a holistic approach to wellness and relaxation.
