Artemisia Pallens Flower Oil

Artemisia Pallens Flower Oil, commonly known as Davana oil, is a steam-distilled essential oil extracted from the flowering tops of Artemisia pallens, a herbaceous plant native to southern India. It is prized in perfumery for its remarkably unique olfactory character — a warm, fruity, balsamic, and slightly woody scent with distinctive tea-like and ethereal nuances, largely attributed to its high content of davanone, a sesquiterpene ketone unique to this species. Formulators choose it for luxury fragrance compositions, skin care, and hair care products not only for its exotic and long-lasting scent profile but also for its reported antimicrobial and antioxidant properties that can contribute functional benefits to a formulation.
