Bay leaf oil

Bay leaf oil (CAS 8006-78-8 ), also known as Myrcia leaf oil, is a steam-distilled essential oil derived from the leaves of Pimenta racemosa. Carrying FEMA 2122 designation, it delivers a warm, spicy-aromatic profile.

This positions it as a recognized flavoring and fragrance ingredient across food, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical applications. In food and beverage manufacturing, it functions as a natural flavoring agent in sauces and marinades.

It is also used in meat seasonings and savory snack formulations where a characteristic bay-spice note is required. Personal care formulators incorporate it into hair tonics, scalp treatments, and men's grooming products.

It is particularly popular in bay rum-style preparations for both fragrance contribution and antioxidant stabilization of the finished formula. In fine fragrance, it serves as a spicy top-to-mid note in eau de cologne.

Pharmaceutical and nutraceutical manufacturers also use it as a flavoring corrective in oral preparations. This is especially useful where masking or aromatic enhancement is needed for the final consumer product.

The oil is supplied as a mobile to slightly viscous amber liquid. It is available in food-grade quality conforming to FEMA standards, with natural and certified organic variants offered depending on sourcing origin.

Bulk supply is typically offered in kilogram quantities through to drum volumes for industrial buyers. This ensures consistent availability for large-scale manufacturing and specialized chemical compounding requirements.
