Product Description

 

Pure Lime Oil is a natural citrus essential oil obtained from the peel of fresh, mature lime fruit via cold pressing. Its aromatic signature is defined by a balanced composition of limonene and citral, the key constituents responsible for its iconic zesty green-lime character. Due to botanical nature, minor shifts in colour intensity and sensory profile can be observed between production batches, driven by origin, harvest period, fruit maturity and local climatic conditions.

All batch variances are strictly maintained within commercially acceptable tolerance when benchmarked against the approved reference sample. Full physicochemical analysis and sensory panel evaluation are conducted on every lot to secure consistent odour quality and broad formulation compatibility across fragrance and cosmetic systems.

FAQ

 

 

Q1: What separates lime oil from lemon oil olfactorily?
A1: Lime oil presents a noticeable green, bitter peel undertone. Lemon oil delivers cleaner, brighter sour citrus without that earthy-green bitter facet.
 
Q2: What processing method is applied for this pure lime oil?
A2: It is cold pressed from fresh lime peel, which retains the fragile green aromatic compounds lost during steam distillation.
 
Q3: Is oxidation a concern for lime oil?
A3: Yes. High terpene and citral content renders it susceptible to oxidation upon exposure to light, heat or oxygen. Proper sealed cool storage slows down chemical degradation.
 
Q4: Which fragrance raw materials pair well with lime oil?
A4: It works beautifully with peppermint, rosemary, lavender, cedarwood and bergamot to construct fresh, energising scent blends.
 
 
Q5: Why do batches show slight colour difference?
A5: Colour variation comes from fruit maturity, growing location and harvest season. All deviations are controlled within agreed commercial range versus reference sample.
 
 
Q6: How is its solubility behaviour?
A6: Insoluble in water; soluble in ethanol, dipropylene glycol and most fragrance oils; partially soluble in vegetable carrier oils.
 
 
Q7: Are there formulation cautions for skin contact products?
A7: The oil contains natural terpenes and citral and carries phototoxic potential for leave-on products. Complete safety assessment must be performed before product launch and comply with global fragrance regulatory requirements.
 
 
Q8: What odor note category belongs to lime oil?
A8: It is classified as a top note. It evaporates quickly and releases immediate fresh citrus impact once applied.
