Ефірна олія розмарину
Bright, herbal-camphoraceous with a clean, pine-like freshness. Rosemary oil smells like the Mediterranean maquis at noon — resinous, aromatic, sun-baked, and bracing.

Запах
Докладно
Цікавий факт
Rosemary's Latin name 'ros marinus' means 'dew of the sea' — the plant thrives on Mediterranean coastal cliffs where morning sea mist provides moisture. The first perfume water in European history, 'Hungary Water' (14th century), was a rosemary distillate used by Queen Elizabeth of Hungary, allegedly to restore her youth at age 72.

Спосіб отримання
Steam distillation of flowering tops and leaves. Yield is approximately 1-2%. Major production in Tunisia, Morocco, Spain, and France (Corsica for verbenone type). Harvest timing affects chemotype expression — early harvest favors lighter terpenes.

У парфумерії
Top-to-heart note in aromatic, fougère, and Mediterranean compositions. Rosemary oil provides the herbal-camphoraceous brightness essential to aromatic fragrances. Alongside lavender, it defines the fougère family. The verbenone chemotype is preferred for fine fragrance; the cineole type for functional and aromatic products. Works with lavender, sage, pine, and citrus.
