Question 1

Which plant part is used to produce coriander essential oil?

Accepted Answer

Coriander essential oil is produced by steam distillation from the ripe, dried seeds of Coriandrum sativum. The characteristic soft, spicy-sweet aroma is mainly due to linalool, which is concentrated in the seeds.

Question 2

How should the 10 ml coriander essential oil be stored and how long does it keep?

Accepted Answer

Store in a cool, dark place below 25 °C, in a tightly closed bottle. Unopened, Coriandrum sativum oil typically keeps for 2-3 years. Once opened, it is advisable to use the content within 12 months, as oxygen gradually alters the aromatic profile.

Question 3

Can coriander essential oil be applied directly to the skin, or does it need to be diluted?

Accepted Answer

Essential oils are generally diluted in a carrier oil (e.g. sweet almond, jojoba), typically at 1-3% concentration for skin preparations. For sensitive skin, a patch test on the inner elbow is recommended. For use on children or during pregnancy, please consult a qualified professional.
