The name causes two confusions. Curry leaf is not the curry plant, Helichrysum italicum, a Mediterranean daisy. Nor is it a component of curry powder. Murraya koenigii is a small tree of the citrus family, and its fresh leaves are a seasoning in their own right across South India and Sri Lanka.
01 · Origin
A small aromatic tree of the family Rutaceae, native to India and the wider region. This oil is distilled from the leaves, grown conventionally in India.
02 · Chemistry
Alpha-pinene and sabinene lead the monoterpene fraction. Beta-caryophyllene adds woody, peppery weight, and beta-phellandrene brings a fresh, slightly peppery-green lift. The oil is light in body and carries none of the toasted note of leaves fried in oil.
03 · In Practice
Dry and spicy, green and faintly sweet. A top-to-middle note. Diffusion, massage blends and natural perfumery, where it lends a savoury green accent unusual among leaf oils. Blends with cardamom, ginger, black pepper, coriander seed, lime, lemongrass and vetiver.
General information: For external use only. Dilute before applying to skin. Keep away from heat and sunlight. Keep out of reach of children. Avoid contact with eyes and mucous membranes.
