Tonka Essential Oil Dipteryx odorat
Tonka beans
Dipteryx odorata (Fabaceae)
The seeds from the large tree Dipteryx odorata growing in northern South America are called tonka beans. They contain coumarin in the form of a glycoside. When the seeds ripen, coumarin is liberated in substantial amounts, often forming crystals on the outside of the seeds
A tonka bean absolute is obtained by extraction of the seeds. It is used in perfumery and in flavouring tobacco. It is a semi-solid or crystalline mass of pale amber or pale brownish-yellow colour. The odour is very rich, sweet and warm
