Helichrysum italicum extract

Helichrysum italicum extract (CAS 90045-56-0), also sourced and listed under Helichrysum angustifolium ext., is a botanical extract derived from the immortelle flower.

Assigned FEMA 2592, it is used across cosmetic, flavor, and nutraceutical applications for its antioxidant activity and distinctive aromatic profile.

In fine fragrance and flavor formulations, it contributes warm, honey-like, and slightly herbaceous notes that distinguish premium products in the global market.

Cosmetic formulators incorporate it into anti-aging serums, facial oils, and skin-repair creams where its antioxidant properties help protect formulations and support stability.

In food and beverage applications, it functions as a natural flavoring agent under its FEMA designation, appearing in confectionery, liqueurs, and specialty food products.

Nutraceutical and supplement manufacturers also use it as a botanical active in encapsulated or liquid formats targeting oxidative stress positioning for health products.

Helichrysum italicum extract is available as an essential oil, CO₂ extract, and standardized liquid or dry extract depending on the specific requirements of the intended application.

Technical and cosmetic-grade material is most common, with packaging typically ranging from small amber vials for fragrance sampling to bulk drums for industrial production.
