Tropical Biotek Ingredients offers high-quality Distilled Lime Oil, a natural essential oil derived from Citrus aurantifolia peel through steam distillation without further processing. Unlike cold-pressed lime oil, the distillation process yields a cleaner, more stable aromatic profile with reduced phototoxic components, making it especially suitable for fine fragrance and cosmetic applications. Distilled Lime Oil delivers a fresh, crisp citrus aroma with subtle green and slightly terpenic nuances. Its balanced profile and improved stability make it a versatile ingredient for flavor, fragrance, and personal care formulations.
