Jaborandi Oil is a yellowish to orange-yellow liquid.
The oil has a sweet-herbaceous, somewhat fruity, not exactly pleasant odor; the odor tones out later on in a tea-like, somewhat bitter, but quite pleasant undertone.
In perfumery, Jaborandi Oil could be used as a piquant additive in colognes, fougéres, aldehydic bases, etc., if the amount of this oil is kept at a safe level.
Occasionally, an essential oil is steam distilled from the leaves prior to the extraction of the alcaloid.
