OVERVIEW: Basil, which is called the ‘Kingly plant’ in Greek (basilikon phuton) is believed to be used in royal perfumes, still an unavoidable item in the perfume industry. It has very high significance in almost all religious rituals and beliefs across cultures. Basil Essential Oil  is produced from the leaves of Ocimum Basilicum and the smell varies based on the region it is cultivated and the cultivators because of its volatile aromatic compounds. Once they start flowering, the essential oil production declines. So it’s very important that we pick the right plants for production. Basil is mainly grown in different regions of Asia and the Mediterranean. The reference standard in our industry is Indian origin Basil Essential Oil. We also can supply the Egyptian origin Linalool type Basil Essential Oil based on request.
