Miris

Davana essential oil is balanced between sweet herbaceous notes and an exceptionally rich and syrupy fruity dimension. As it dries, leathery notes develop to nuance its fragrance. Its odour is also described as fruity, leafy, berry, black currant, balsam and raisin. Another description gives a fruity note of syrupy liqueur on a woody, animalic base. A further description names a brandy and rum note. Other descriptions list sweet fruity berry, black raspberry, dried berry, raisin and seedy balsamic notes, or a fruity, apricot-quince and syrupy character. One description is peppered, sweet and balsamic, with dried apricot and a bitterish wormwood touch. Another gives warm aromatic artemisia tones combined with an appealing fruity cherry-alcohol top note. The oil is also called green, penetrating, herbal and balsamic, and its aroma is pictured as mulled fruity berry warmth with a hint of green. Shorter descriptions read rich balsamic, or green, fruity, floral and husky.

Detaljno

Davana is mostly grown in the Indian states of Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Maharashtra and Tamil Nadu. The leaves and flowers yield an essential oil known as oil of Davana. Artemisia pallens belongs to a genus of small herbs or shrubs that are xerophytic in nature, and its common name dhavanam comes from the Sanskrit name damanaka.

Cultivation

The plant is commercially cultivated for its fragrant leaves and flowers. It grows from seeds and cuttings and reaches maturity in four months. It has two distinct morphological types: short plants that flower early and tall plants that flower later. The plant bears numerous small yellow flower heads, but a silvery white silky covering of down gives the foliage a grey or white appearance. The lower part of the stem is woody, with yearly branches. In the wild it usually grows near sandalwood trees, and its blue-green leaves are covered with a greyish-white downy coating. It is a preferred food for the larvae of a number of butterfly species.

Chemistry

Davanone, davana furan and linalool are major constituents of davana oil. Davan ether is also among the major constituents of the oil. Methyl cinnamate, ethyl cinnamate, bicyclogermacrene, 2-hydroxyisodavanone, farnesol and geranyl acetate are also found. Sesquiterpene lactones and germacranolides are also found. From the flower-head emergence stage to the initiation of seed set, the amounts of davanone and linalool decrease, while those of (Z)- and (E)-methyl cinnamate, (E)-ethyl cinnamate, bicyclogermacrene, davana ether, 2-hydroxyisodavanone and farnesol increase. Davanone has the molecular formula C₁₅H₂₄O₂ and a molecular weight of 236.35. Its systematic name is 2-(5-ethenyl-5-methyloxolan-2-yl)-6-methylhept-5-en-3-one.

Uses

Davana leaves and stalks are used in making bouquets, garlands, fresh or dry flower arrangements. Oral doses of aqueous or methanolic extract from the aerial parts, given in high amounts, lowered blood glucose levels in glucose-fed hyperglycemic rabbits and rats and in rats and rabbits treated with alloxan.

Istorija

Davana is deeply rooted in Indian religious traditions. Known as Davanam in Tamil, the plant is braided into wreaths and bouquets for use in rituals and to decorate temples dedicated to Shiva. Davana blossoms are offered to Shiva, the God of Transformation, by the devotees, and decorate his altar throughout the day. Davana is used as a daily offering, placed on the altar early in the day and removed in the evening.

Dauna leaves are found abundantly on the Wadi Ratnagiri Mountain, in the city of Kolhapur. The mountain is home to Shri Jotiba, and the plant is exclusively used as an offering to this deity at this temple. At the Rathothsavam of the Sri Khadri Narasimha Swami temple in Kadiri, people throw dhavanam on the Ratham as it moves through the maadaveedhulu.

Davana has long been grown in Indian gardens, where its fragrance was much loved.

Zanimljivosti

Five compounds, the (Z)- and (E)-methyl cinnamates, the (Z)- and (E)-ethyl cinnamates and geranyl acetate, were identified for the first time in davana oil in a 1999 study of growth stage. Davana is rarely used in cooking, but in India it is sometimes used in herbal teas for flavor.

Dobijanje i hemija

Način dobijanja

It is harvested when the flowers are fully open in late summer. The whole plant is cut by hand with a sickle and dried for about a week before distillation. The raw material is processed into essential oil by steam distillation, and the processed plant part is the flowering top. The essential oil content is higher at the full emergence of flower heads than at anthesis and at the initiation of seed set. Harvesting the crop at full bloom stage is the general practice.
