Application
Coriander oil (CAS 8008-52-4) is a steam-distilled essential oil from the crushed seeds of Coriandrum sativum L. It appears as a colorless to pale yellow liquid with a characteristic sweet, warm, woody, spicy, and slightly floral aroma, primarily due to high levels of linalool (60-70%). In the flavor industry, it is widely used as a natural flavoring agent (FEMA 2334) to impart fresh, citrus-like, and herbal notes to curry blends, pickles, sauces, meat products, baked goods, confectionery, and alcoholic beverages such as gin and vermouth. As a fragrance ingredient, coriander oil provides a refreshing, spicy-herbal top note in perfumes, colognes, soaps, lotions, and household cleaners, blending harmoniously with citrus, lavender, and woody accords. The oil also exhibits antioxidant, antimicrobial, and digestive-stimulating properties, making it valuable in nutraceuticals, aromatherapy for stress relief, and topical formulations for its soothing effect. Additionally, it serves as a natural preservative and as a source of linalool for the synthesis of other aroma chemicals such as linalyl acetate and vitamin E.
