Wild Carrot | Carrot Seed Essential Oil (Daucus carota)

Certified Wild Harvested Carrot Seed Oil from Greece

Certified wild carrot seed essential oil. Steam-distilled from mature seeds collected from wild-growing plants (wild harvested), not from intensive cultivation. This is a niche raw material with limited availability. GC/MS profile: carotol 46.97% (a characteristic quality marker for Daucus carota). This is a full-fledged essential oil – not a pressed oil or a macerate.

It supports the renewal and comfort of mature skin, helps in scar care; its green-earthy, slightly grassy aroma acts as a delicate fixative in perfumery, beautifully rounding out citrus notes and calming compositions in diffusion.

Note: This is a steam-distilled seed essential oil, not a root macerate or pressed oil.

Ethics of Wild Harvesting

This essential oil is made from seeds obtained through wild harvesting, not from intensive cultivation. This is a niche raw material with limited availability.

Ethics of wild harvesting: Harvesting only a portion of the seeds from a given population, rotation of sites, no interference with the root system, no herbicides/pesticides; this maintains biodiversity and the repeatability of the raw material.

Quality Guarantee – GC/MS and GC/FID Tests

Vessel essential oils are tested using GC/MS and GC/FID methods, confirming their authenticity, purity, and conformity with the plant's natural profile.

Gas chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry (GC/MS) in SCAN mode is used in the analysis to precisely identify each component. Quantitative composition is determined by GC/FID. This ensures that we offer only natural essential oils, without synthetic additives – ideal for professional aromatherapy applications.
