Botanical name :
Trigonella foenum-graecum L.
Synonyms : Buceras foenum-graecum (L.) All. // Foenugraecum officinale Moench,
Botanical profile :
Fenugreek is a plant of the Fabaceae family and the genus Trigonella.
Chemotypes :
The genus Trigonella contains more than fifty different species.
The variety foenum-graecum is mainly cultivated for its seeds.
The variety T. corniculata is interesting for its leaves.
Extraction process :
Fenugreek (or trigonella) is a perennial plant that grows all year but is harvested from May to October. 10 to 20 seeds are present in the fruits and are the part that is treated in perfumery. These seeds can be crushed and dried before the steam distillation to obtain an essential oil, or treated fresh with hexane to extract a concrete that is diluted in alcohol to precipitate the waxes after the glazing. After the filtration, the alcohol evaporates and the absolute is collected, with a more roasted and powerful smell.
Other comments :
Fenugreek has been used for a long time. It is indeed possible to find traces of its use in India around -2000 B.C. In ancient Egypt, people also used it during mummification or as incense (burning seeds).
Stability :
Solubility issues in perfumes
Stable oil in perfumes and in diverse functional bases
