Adam Michael has this to say “To my nose the smell of coconut CO2 is joyous coconut sweet, a walk on the beach – coconut fresh, coconut creamy, coconut nutty, with a buttery/fatty texture. This material is solid at room temperature and requires warmth for 4-6 minutes before turning liquid. The pulp of this fruit is CO2 extracted and this material is a select extract. Useful for therapists, natural perfumers and anyone who wants to enjoy the aroma of an all-natural coconut material. The major constituents include lauric acid 58.4%, myristic acid 17.4%, carpylic acids C8:0 & C10:0 at 17.8% collectively and palmitic acid at 4.8%.”
Mark Evans has this to say “Imagine lightly toasting shredded coconut in a dry pan, that wonderful aroma has been perfectly captured in this organic CO2 extract. The perfect coconut aroma is enhanced with nutty chocolate, butter, creamy vanilla and hints of tropical fruits. When you think of coconut scents, you may have been put off in the past by the sickly sweet overpowering synthetic coconut fragrance present in many cheaper sun screens and cosmetics. This CO2, however, plays a much more natural smelling, subtle role in your tropical or gourmand creations. Note that this extract is soluble in fixed or vegetable oils, but there may be some insoluble residue remaining when blended with alcohol. This residue can be removed with chilled filtering. Coconut CO2 blends wonderfully with exotic floral fragrances such as ylang ylang, jasmine and lilac and I can only dream of the delicious gourmand creations that it could feature in.”
Joseph Colbourne has this to say “A clear liquid CO2 extraction originating from the Philippines, this material has the seductive aroma of fresh coconut meat right from the shell. Its waxy, luscious, nutty, toasty, lactonic and mouth-watering. Its dry down has facets of brazil nut, chestnut, praline, vanilla, and equatorial bliss. The fatty, round, robust character of this delicacy makes it tenacious, bold, and diffusive. The scent lingers after ten hours on the tester strip. Coupled with ylang, jasmine, or frangipani for a sultry tropical accord. Coconut CO2 can be used panache in gourmand accords, paired with lime, or blended with spices such as clove or ginger.”

Forget the dreaded Coconut Aldehyde, this is the real deal. It is a semi-sweet material that will follow the route of the other ingredients: add sweetness and it will cherish, put it into bitter or fresh concoctions and it will silently smooth edges, This offering is mostly nutty, as the dried fruit when in high concentration, and turns a bit lighter and refreshing when diluted.
Mixing it with Lime for a rendition of a famous drink wasn’t a good idea because of the noticeable nuttiness that has no place with citruses. Blended with gourmand materials, such as Tonka Bean and Coffee, it exudes creamy and buttery aspects. With white flowers such as Ylang Ylang Extra, for instance, it offers a beautiful backbone for what could be best described as ‘something akin to lavish fertility rituals’.

Coconut CO2 is much more subtle than its synthetic alternatives and certainly has much more of the nuances of a real coconut. I found I needed to use more of this this material than intended due to it’s subtlety.

This is a very nice thing! Don’t expect any swaying coconut fragrant trees in the car when you can’t wait to get out of the car or taxi. It is a completely grated coconut that has exactly such a delicate and natural scent that you will not have a headache from it. There is strength in subtlety. It’s true.

For those of you living in the USA, this smells exactly like the refrigerated Trader Joe’s organic coconut smoothie, only even more fresh, and more of it. You can smell the coconut fat/meat and coconut water. Works oh so well hidden behind florals like frangipani, Ylang Ylang, and tuberose.

This CO2 extract is just perfect…smells & even tastes fantastic…it’s not sickly sweet or overpowering…extravagance on top of indulgence.
