Caraway Essential oil Finland
Odor: spicy and fresh Use: Caraway is a small umbellifer resembling wild carrot. The lacey leaves are on hollow, branching stems and the small, white flowers are clustered in light, airy umbels. This biennial plant only begins blooming in its second year, from May to July. The fruits follow and are harvested in August. When the stems turn brown, the caraway plants are harvested. They must be cut before the fruit is fully mature to avoid the seeds dropping from the umbels. In days of old, harvesting was done manually, using a sickle. Nowadays, it is performed mechanically, which reduces raw-material losses. Harvesting is best done on sunny days when the seeds contain more essential oil. The caraway essential oil obtained through steam distillation of the dried seeds is spicy and fresh. |

Caraway Seed oil, Egypt
Odor: characteristic Use: Caraway Seed oil has a pungent, herbaceous, slightly musky aroma. While Caraway seeds are frequently used in breads, cakes, and rolls, the oil is often used as a fragrance component in soaps, lotions, and perfumes making this a great choice for our soapers and perfumers. Caraway Seed oil is also thought to be a breath freshener and has been a common component in toothpaste and mouthwash products. Also, ancient Egyptians had been recommending Caraway seeds for digestive upsets since 1550 B.C. |
