Miris

The flower has a strong, alluring and sweet floral scent. The absolute has an intensely sweet, almost nauseating odour. The leaf oil opens with a sweet, oily-grassy and rather delicate top note reminiscent of perilla oil or freshly cut tulip leaves. After the top note the odour changes into a delicately sweet, tea-like or hay-like fragrance with an undertone of sage-clary or rose absolute.

Teroar i poreklo

Detaljno

Magnolia × alba, also known as the white champaca, white sandalwood or white jade orchid tree, is a hybrid flowering plant. Its exact origin is uncertain, but it is considered a hybrid of Magnolia champaca and Magnolia montana. Magnolia champaca, one of its parents, has strongly fragrant flowers in shades of cream to yellow-orange. The tree is not known in the wild. It matures to 30 meters and has evergreen leaves. It is widely cultivated in China, especially in southern regions such as Fujian, Guangdong, Hainan, Guangxi and Yunnan. The current name of the white champaca comes from its Indonesian local name, Cempaka Putih or Bunga Kantil.

Linalool is the primary component found in the plant, at 72.8% in flower oil and 80.1% in leaf oil. The flower oil also contains α-terpineol at 6.04%, phenylethyl alcohol at 2.58%, β-pinene at 2.39% and geraniol at 1.23%. The linalool of the essential oils is mainly the dextro-rotatory stereoisomer (95% in leaf oil, 75% in flower oil). An absolute from flowers collected in Fukien, China, showed over 100 chemical components, the most important being linalool, 2-phenyl ethanol, 9,12-octadecadienal, methyl eugenol and methyl hexanoate. Methyl 2-methylbutyrate, methyl butyrate and p-cymene are the most important components in the headspace of the flowers. Steam distillation of leaves collected in Fukien, China, yielded about 0.2% of an essential oil consisting mainly of linalool.

The flowers of M. × alba and M. champaca are marketed for their scent, used in making garlands and placed between stored clothes. In Indonesia the flower is arranged with Jasminum sambac in garlands, especially worn by brides at traditional wedding ceremonies. In Thailand the flowers are worn as traditional wedding garlands by the bride and groom. In China the flowers are used to prepare yulan tea. In traditional Chinese medicine, the flowers are used to move qi and relieve cough.

Dobijanje i hemija

Način dobijanja

The essential oil of Michelia flowers is obtained by solvent extraction of fresh flowers. Solvent extraction of the flowers of M. × alba yields 0.2% concrete, which on simultaneous steam distillation and extraction yields 0.05 g absolute per 100 g flowers. The flowers must be processed rapidly, because only a few hours after picking they turn brown and begin to lose their fragrance. Enfleurage has also been used to collect the aroma compounds from the flowers. The essential oil from the leaves is obtained by distillation. Steam distillation is commonly used in commercial extraction of the essential oil because the method is convenient and economical.
