EO Ginger Root (org) is an essential oil for use as a fragrance. Use the oil for example in perfume, aftershave or air fresheners.

Use

EO Ginger Root (org) has a warm citrus scent with green and spice aspects. It is reminiscent of the smell of ginger, but has more of a citrus character. It pairs well with citrus and conifer scents, such as lemon and pine, adding spice and warmth. In smaller quantities it is very versatile, in larger quantities especially in spicy fresh scents. Making a solution of, for example, 10% can be useful in some cases, so DPG is a good choice. You usually use between 0.1% and 10% of this substance in the fragrance composition. It is one of those substances that is difficult to divide into top / heart and base. In high doses it is mainly a top to heart note, in lower doses it is often more of a heart to base note. Less suitable in soap, the smell is affected and the oil can lead to discoloration.

Store cool, dry and dark.
