It is usually a low-use material, with tolerance depending on concentration, extraction quality, and the user's sensitivity to fragrance components.

Is Jasminum Officinale Flower Extract sustainable?

This material is plant-derived and its organic portion is generally expected to biodegrade, but it yields can be low and cultivation intensity varies by supply chain. Solvent choice, traceability, and whether the crop is grown under certified organic or responsible agricultural practices matter more than the INCI alone.

Is Jasminum Officinale Flower Extract COSMOS-approved?

It can be permitted under COSMOS-natural and COSMOS-organic when made from approved plant material, allowed extraction methods, and compliant preservatives or carriers.

This material is a complex botanical mixture containing volatile aroma molecules, terpenoids, phenolic compounds, and other plant-derived constituents rather than a single defined molecule. Typical use is often about 0.1 to 2% for botanical extracts, while fragrance-impact grades are used much lower, and heat, light, and air exposure can reduce aroma quality over time.
