Carrot Seed
B2B ingredient for professional formulation evaluation.
Carrot seed oil is steam-distilled from the dried seeds of Daucus carota, the wild ancestor of the cultivated carrot. Unlike the familiar orange root vegetable, wild carrot (also known as Queen Anne's lace) produces seeds that yield a pale yellow to amber essential oil with a distinctive earthy, slightly sweet, and herbaceous aroma. Our carrot seed oil is produced from wild-crafted and organically cultivated plants in Xinjiang Province, where the arid climate and long daylight hours promote optimal seed essential oil accumulation. Each batch is GC-analyzed for carotol percentage, ensuring consistent quality for premium cosmetic and aromatherapy formulations.
