What are the exact appearance and color specifications of your gardenia essential oil?

Our gardenia essential oil is a clear to pale yellow liquid, ranging from pale yellow to light amber depending on harvest batch and extraction method.

Appearance Specifications

ParameterSpecification
AppearanceClear to pale yellow liquid
Color RangePale yellow to light amber
Typical NoteFree from visible impurities, sediment or cloudiness
Color variation between batches is normal and within spec — steam-distilled lots tend to run paler, while CO2-extracted lots may show a deeper amber tone due to higher content of waxy and resinous co-extractives. This does not affect aroma performance or safety.

If your formulation requires a consistent color bracket (for example a light-amber-only range for skin-care products), specify the tolerance and we will blend or select batches to match. A batch-specific visual reference photo and COA are sent with every quotation.
