Usage
Use (Hekserij)
Essential oil Buchu leaf has a green, fruity, herbal scent. The scent is quite
strong, a dilution of for example 10% can therefore be useful. It goes well with
fruity scents, but also with citrus for example. It adds a particularly light
sulphurous accent of mint, blackcurrant and camphor. You usually use a trace to
1% of this substance in the fragrance composition, but in special cases it lends
itself to a higher dosage. Especially in tropical fruit scents such as papaya
and mango, and in berry scents such as blackcurrant it may be a good addition.
In perfumes it is not very specific top, heart or base note: it remains quite
strong throughout the entire period of use.

Properties (Hekserij)
Essential oil Buchu leaf is a light yellow to brown liquid at room temperature.
The substance has a fairly long shelf life. The oil is made by steam
distillation from the leaves of Agathosma betulina (Berg.) Pillans (you also
find: Barosmeta betulina). Like every essential oil, this one is also a mixture
of various substances. An indication of the composition is the following:
> 25% - Isomethone
10-25% - Limonene, Menthone
5-10% - 1,8-Cineole, Myrcene
2-5% - alpha Pinene, Pulegone
1-2% - beta Pinene
