Our organic Coconut Pulp CO2 Select Extract offers coconut enthusiasts a robust and amazingly tenacious gourmand aroma that is irresistibly warm and creamy. Since traditional pressings of culinary Coconut oils have little flavor or aroma, until the recent appearance of this extract, availability of a naturally sourced, rich Coconut aroma has eluded both perfumers and natural products manufacturers alike. To produce this product, organic cold-pressed coconut oil is further processed with CO2 select extraction resulting in an increase of aromatic lactones and a decrease of some fatty acids. CO2 extraction of fats offers the multiple benefits of low production temperatures, short extraction time and no necessity for added chemical preservatives.[1]

We think Coconut Pulp CO2 is a logical choice for after sun lotions, and for applying to dry, dehydrated skin and hair after swimming in chlorinated pools or immersion in hot tubs. Composed of medium chain triglycerides (MCTs) – skin-nourishing fatty acids – Coconut Pulp CO2 is of course soluble in fixed/vegetable oils, but there will be a small amount of non-dissolvable (insoluble) fats remaining when blended into perfumer's or 190 proof alcohol. These fats can be removed with chilled filtering. At cooler temperatures, the normally clear Coconut Pulp CO2 will solidify, becoming opaque, but will liquefy readily when the bottle is placed in a warm water bath.
