Description :
L-Carvone is a clear to pale yellow liquid with a refreshing spearmint oil scent. It is a naturally occurring monoterpene ketone found in essential oils such as dill, caraway, and spearmint. L-Carvone is a popular ingredient in the flavour, fragrance, cosmetic, and pharmaceutical industries because it smells and tastes good and cools the air. L-Carvone is the levorotatory isomer of carvone, which means it smells like mint. This is different from D-Carvone, which smells like caraway or spice. It is a key ingredient in oral care, food, and perfume because it is derived from nature, is safe, and offers a wide range of scents.
L-Carvone has a minty, cooling, and refreshing taste that makes it great for chewing gum, candy, drinks, and toothpaste. It is also used to give mouthwashes and breath fresheners a natural, clean taste. Ingredients that add flavour: Pentanoic Acid | Ethyl Isovalerate
L-Carvone provides minty, herbal, and aromatic top notes to perfumes, making it suitable for fresh, green, and menthol scents. People often mix it into deodorants, colognes, soaps, and room sprays to give them a fresh, natural smell. Look into other chemicals that smell good: Rosalva | Linalyl Formate
L-Carvone is used in hair, skin, and oral care products because it kills bacteria and has a pleasant smell.
