This aromatic plant grows primarily in southern India and is known for its warm, fruity, and spicy scent. Davana has been used for centuries in traditional Indian rituals, perfume creations, and aromatherapy due to its unique scent profile and versatile applications. The oil is typically obtained through steam distillation of the flowering aerial parts of the plant.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">What makes Davana truly special is that its scent subtly adapts to the wearer\u2019s body chemistry. As a result, the same oil smells just a little different on different people. This makes Davana a beloved ingredient in exclusive perfumes and natural fragrance compositions. The oil contains, among other compounds, davanones, davana ethers, bicyclogermacrene, and other aromatic sesquiterpenes that are responsible for its characteristic scent profile.   <\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"h-geur-van-davana-etherische-olie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Scent of Davana Essential Oil<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Davana has a rich, complex scent that is difficult to describe in a single word.

The oil works exceptionally well as a heart or base note and gives perfumes a warm, rich, and sensual character. <\/p>\n\n<h2 id=\"h-eigenschappen-van-davana-etherische-olie\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">Properties of Davana Essential Oil<\/h2>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Davana is valued in aromatherapy for its relaxing and harmonizing properties.

The flowers are traditionally harvested during flowering, as this is when the essential oil content is at its highest. The composition of the oil also changes during the plant\u2019s various growth stages, meaning that the harvest time and origin influence the final aroma.  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<ul>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>A rare, exclusive oil<\/strong> \u2014extracted from the davana plant (Artemisia pallens), primarily from India, with a limited annual harvest.<\/li>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Deep, fruity-woody scent<\/strong> \u2014a unique aroma that combines wine-like, fruity, and balsamic notes, widely used in high-end perfumery.<\/li>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Calming and mood-enhancing<\/strong> \u2014known for its relaxing effects, ideal for aromatherapy and meditation.<\/li>\n<li class=\"font-claude-response-body whitespace-normal break-words pl-2\"><strong>Powerful base note<\/strong> \u2014excellent fixative properties, which enhance the longevity and depth of perfume compositions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":386110,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_acf_changed":false},"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[3382,281,2781,3745,3356,284,2663,299,2230,3719,293,280],"product_tag":[],"class_list":["post-386236","product","type-product","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","product_cat-aromatherapy","product_cat-cold-process-soap","product_cat-cosmetics","product_cat-essential-oil-en-3","product_cat-essential-oil-en-2","product_cat-essential-oil","product_cat-essential-oil-en","product_cat-essential-oil-melt-pour","product_cat-making-bath-fizz","product_cat-making-lotion","product_cat-melt-and-pour","product_cat-soap-making","pa_inhoud-1000-ml-en","pa_inhoud-10-ml-en","pa_inhoud-100-ml-en","pa_inhoud-25-l-en","pa_inhoud-250-ml-en","pa_inhoud-30-ml-en","pa_inhoud-5-l-en","pa_inhoud-50-ml-en","pa_inhoud-500-ml-en","first","instock","taxable","shipping-taxable","purchasable","product-type-variable","has-default-attributes"],"bundled_by":[],"bundle_stock_status":"instock","bundle_stock_quantity":null,"bundle_virtual":false,"bundle_layout":"","bundle_add_to_cart_form_location":"","bundle_editable_in_cart":false,"bundle_sold_individually_context":"","bundle_item_grouping":"","bundle_min_size":"","bundle_max_size":"","bundle_price":[],"bundled_items":[],"bundle_sell_ids":[],"exclude_global_add_ons":[],"addons":[],"acf":{"schema_OpeningHoursSpecification_repeater":null,"schema_SpecialDays_repeater":null},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/386236","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=386236"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/386236\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":386247,"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product\/386236\/revisions\/386247"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/386110"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=386236"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_brand?post=386236"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_cat?post=386236"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.youwish.nl\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/product_tag?post=386236"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
