Escentia Capsicum Oleoresin Essential Oil 10ml

Escentia Capsicum Oleoresin Essential Oil (6%) is a concentrated extract derived from capsicum peppers. Intensely warming and stimulating, it is traditionally used in aromatherapy and topical massage blends when highly diluted.

What Is Capsicum Oleoresin Essential Oil?

Escentia Capsicum Oleoresin Essential Oil is a potent botanical extract obtained from capsicum peppers (Capsicum species). Unlike steam-distilled essential oils, oleoresins are concentrated extracts that contain both volatile aromatic compounds and resinous components, making them especially strong and long-lasting.

This product is standardised to a 6% pure extract, offering controlled potency suitable for professional blending, aromatherapy formulations, and cosmetic applications when used with care.

Aroma Profile

Capsicum Oleoresin Essential Oil has a strong, spicy, and intensely warming aroma. Its fragrance is bold and peppery, adding depth and heat to blends, and is often used in very small quantities to create a sensation of warmth and stimulation.
