Description
This beautiful Co2 Musk Essential Oil has an earthy, sweet and primal aroma that is a great alternative to the animal musk oils that are often sought after and used in perfumery. This plant goes by many names - Musk Dana in India, as well as Musk Mallow, Rose Mallow, Ambrette, and Ornamental Okra.
Musk seeds are known for their aromatic similarity to animal musk, which primarily comes from a ketone called ambrettolide. In the past, musk was gathered from the sexual glands of the musk deer, but this practice has now been prohibited for many years.
Our Co2 Musk Essential Oil opens with woody and chocolatey notes, gathering more powdery sweetness as it unfolds. This essential oil has some of the best longevity of any essential oil we have worked with, still detecting some hints of its sweet aroma days after application.
Musk seeds are primarily used in Southeast Asia, where folk medicine uses these seeds for snake bites, stomache cramps, intestinal diseases and loss of appetite. In Chinese folk medicine, it is used to treat headaches.
Musk Essential Oil was once prevalent in perfumes and colognes, but now the industry is saturated with cheap, synthetic alternatives that have far less personality and no therapeutic benefits.
There is literature written about indiginous women adorning their bodies and arms with strings of these aromatic seeds. They are also added to coffee in some cultures, possibly for their digestive benefits.
Research has shown this oil to be bactericidal against B. subtilis, S. aureus and E. faecalis
Caution: Musk Essential Oil may be associated with skin irritation for some people. It's recommended to do a patch test or dilute the oil before applying.
Aroma: Earthy, Amber-like, Sweet, Woody, Powdery, with notes of Animalia
