Wormwood

Essential oils

Wormwood essential oil is an intense material with a dry bitter-herbaceous, camphoraceous and at times spicy-balsamic character. This is a raw material of high aromatic strength, so in compositions it usually works as an accent and requires precise dosing.

In perfumery wormwood is used for bitter-herbal, aromatic, absinthe and experimental directions. Small quantities can make a composition drier, more grown-up and more contrasting, particularly next to woody, leather, incense and green notes.

Industrial work with wormwood requires mandatory control of species and chemotype: thujone content and other components can differ substantially. This directly affects permitted applications, inclusion limits and the requirements of a particular market.

In B2B sales, therefore, what works is not the promise of a «universal wormwood oil» but a transparent specification. For a professional buyer the value of the product lies in confirmed composition, batch stability and the ability to assess in advance whether the material suits a specific formulation.
