What It Does
Roasted Garlic Extract is a concentrated water-soluble botanical extract derived from thermally processed Allium sativum bulbs at a 10:1 concentration ratio. The roasting process transforms the sharp, pungent sulfur compounds of raw garlic into mellower, sweeter organosulfur derivatives while developing complex Maillard reaction products that contribute savory, umami-like characteristics. Formulators select this extract for fragrance applications requiring authentic culinary garlic notes with reduced volatility and harshness compared to raw garlic extracts, particularly in products targeting Mediterranean or Middle Eastern aromatic profiles.
