Frequently asked questions
What is oregano essential oil?
It is the steam distilled oil of the whole wild marjoram plant, Origanum vulgare (INCI: Origanum Vulgare Oil). It is one of the strongest culinary herb oils and is widely used to flavour Mediterranean-style foods.
What does oregano oil smell like?
Intensely warm, spicy and herbaceous, like dried oregano with a sharp, peppery and slightly smoky edge. Use it sparingly in fragrance, where it blends with thyme, rosemary, lavender, bay, lemon and black pepper.
Where does it come from and can it be used in food?
It comes from oregano of Spanish origin. It is suitable as a food flavouring under EU 1334/2008, subject to the usual formulation considerations; it is very concentrated, so tiny amounts flavour sauces, oils and seasonings.
What pack sizes and safety documents are available?
From 100 ml up to a 25 kg pack, all priced online; for regular volumes, ask us for a bulk quote. SDS, IFRA certificate, EU allergens declaration and typical GC are available; use the IFRA certificate to set the maximum level for each product category.
