The properties of the extracted oil are listed below. Kizuisen (John Kill)
Kizuisen belongs to the family Amaryllidaceae, and the fragrance of flowers is more delicate and gorgeous than Narcissus, and is the strongest scent of narcissus. As for the fragrance, the flower is extracted with petroleum ether to obtain concrete, from which absolute is obtained. Jonquil absolute is a dark brown to orange viscous liquid with a rich scent similar to tuberose.
As aromatic components, esters of cinnamic acid such as methyl benzoate, benzyl benzoate and methyl cinnamate, linalool, methyl anthranilate and indole have been reported.

Carnation, carnation in English, Buddha is a perennial plant with a strong fragrance called Wier, belonging to the family Nadesico. A flower that has been cultivated and loved since ancient times, it is an indispensable flower for Mother's Day and Easter events as a symbol of happiness. Carnation fragrances can be obtained in absolute form from concrete extracted with petroleum ether, but the production volume is decreasing because the oil yield is as low as 0.03%. Carnation flowers have a rich and spicy clove-like scent. As aroma components, eugenol, phenylethyl alcohol, benzyl benzoate, benzyl salicylate, cinnamyl alcohol, citronellol and the like have been found.

Jasmine and jasmine are the most popular fragrance materials that have been used with rose.

For fragrances, a variety called Spanish Jasmine is cultivated, and fragrances are extracted in France, Egypt, Morocco, India, China and other countries. The scent of jasmine is used in the form of absolute by dewaxing the concrete obtained by extracting the flower with petroleum ether, mainly hexane, with ethanol. The main fragrance ingredients are benzyl acetate, benzyl benzoate, linalool, phytols, etc., but characteristic ones are methyl jasmonate, cis jasmon, indole. By the way, what is used for scenting jasmine tea in China is a tropical type called pine (matrica), which is a green floral scent that resembles a flower without a jasmon.

It is widely used in typical Japanese foods such as tempura, sashimi, soup, and pickled plums, and is one of the most familiar foods for Japanese people. Perilla aldehydes, limonene and caryophyllene are unique scent components of perilla. Among them, perilaldehyde, which accounts for more than half of the components, is also called sisaldehyde and has a strong antibacterial and antiseptic effect.

Celery, celery is a biennial plant of the celery family. The fragrance is mainly celery seed oil obtained by steam-distilling the seeds. It is a yellow or greenish brown liquid with a strong and spicy celery-specific fragrance. The main aroma components of celery seed oil are limonene, serinen, myrcene, α-pinene, β-pinene, butyl phthalide, pentylbenzene, etc., and characteristic ones are dihydrophthalides. Of these, cedanolide is particularly involved in the celery seed character.

Strictly speaking, the oil extraction method needs to find an optimum method for each raw material. In the present invention, the extraction site of each raw material was made into a dry powder, extracted with water and an organic solvent, and the fraction was collected by steam distillation. In this case, although it depends on the extraction method, in order to expect a slimming action, it is generally desirable to contain about 1 g per liter of beverage or low alcohol beverage as a weight in terms of raw material.

  EXAMPLES The present invention will be described below with reference to examples, but the present invention is not limited to the examples. 100 g of an appropriate part of each raw material was pulverized, 800 g of water was added, and the mixture was extracted by stirring at 60 ° C. for 2 hours. After cooling, solid-liquid separation was performed to obtain 700 g of an extract. The extract was passed through a synthetic adsorbent (Diaion HP-20 (Mitsubishi Chemical Corporation). After washing with water, 500 mL of 95% ethanol was passed through to obtain 400 g of 95% ethanol desorption solution. The liquid was subjected to steam distillation to obtain 10 g of a distillate, and 1 L of an extract was obtained with hot water from a commercially available unscented tea tea bag using the fragrance as a weight in terms of raw material. 0.2 g was added as a sample, and 5 women aged 20 to 30 years were allowed to drink the tea beverage every night before going to bed and compared the weight before and after the continuous test (weight loss) The amount kg is an average value of 5 people.)
