The present invention relates to a natural perfume composition and a cosmetic composition containing the natural perfume composition which contribute to stress relief and soothing effects and contribute to a good night's sleep.

The rapidly changing modern society is increasing the stress to the modern people by the uncertain situation about the unpredictable future and the diversification of values. When stress occurs, psychological instability is caused, and the sympathetic nervous system, which is an autonomic nervous system that maintains the body homeostasis, is excessively stimulated, resulting in problems such as sleeping disorder accompanied by an increase in tension.

Current methods of relieving stress include psychotherapy or psychotherapy, biofeedback therapy, gradual relaxation therapy or exercise therapy. Although these methods can not directly eliminate external stressors, they are ways to ensure that individuals are constantly aware of the various stresses they constantly experience in their lives and that they are less likely to have negative health effects. Among these stress relieving methods, there is a growing interest in oriental therapy and there is an increasing use of fragrance to provide a comfortable environment at work or in public places.

In particular, it is known that aroma essential oil fragrance materials applied to fragrance therapy reduce stress, maintain the balance of autonomic nerves, and further strengthen immune functions that regulate disease or body mismatch. Some studies on stress-related aroma therapy have reported stress reduction effects in the working environment through subjective postural evaluation of several aroma oil inhalation methods.

For example, Clariceae stimulates the hypothalamus to release neurometallic substance to eliminate pain and make you feel happy. Ylang Ylang stimulates the pituitary gland to release endorphins and stimulate sexual arousal neurotransmitters. Rosemary, lavender, chemomail, neroli, etc. stimulate the secretion of serotonin to relieve fear, stress, and insomnia.

However, there is a need to further study the mechanisms that can maximize the secretion of serotonin in aroma essential oils and the substances or ingredients that can induce them.

Perfume composition

An aspect of the present invention relates to a composition comprising: rosemary essential oil; And honey extract, grape extract, and plum extract as an active ingredient.

The perfume composition may include rosemary essential oil, and may be a composition for stress relief or psychological stability enhancement. The composition can relieve tension, relax, stabilize emotions and relax the mind and body.

The perfume composition may increase alpha-waves and reduce beta-waves in the brain waves.

The term " alpha-wave " means that a wave of a frequency corresponding to a frequency of 8 to 13 Hz in an EEG emanates from the occiput of the cortical cortex. A wave similar to the curve between the left and right symmetry appears on both sides of the occiput. The amplitude repeats a certain increase or decrease in a cycle of 1 to several seconds. It occurs when a normal adult relaxes and rests.

The " beta-wave " refers to a wave having a frequency of 13 Hz or more generally in EEG, and appears in a normal person during an eye or mental activity, and is generally low in amplitude and symmetrical with regularity. It can occur especially in stressed and excited state and in stressed state.

The term " stress alleviation " means mitigating and reducing the degree of stress, which is a nonspecific biological reaction occurring in the body against various injuries and stimuli applied to the living body, and particularly, alleviating mental stress or tensions due to external factors it means.

The above "psychological stability" may mean that the mind is comfortable and unstable in the psychological aspect as opposed to the physical stability, and the stable state is maintained or maintained. In addition, the above psychological stability may mean a relaxed state of mind by being away from stress, which means stabilizing and relaxing emotions.

The above " relax " means resting, psychological relaxation, relaxation or a relaxed state of mind.

The Rosemary Essential Oil is highly beneficial for students who need mental concentration because of their mental alertness, concentration and memory. It is also helpful for patients with hypotension due to a strong cardiopulmonary effect and a rise in blood pressure. It is also effective for cellulite and obesity because it has the effect of promoting lymphatic circulation and relieving fluid retention.

It has analgesic effect and is effective for muscular pain and arthralgia. It has wrinkle reducing effect and is effective for hair stimulation and hair loss prevention. Above all, it is a strong, clean and refreshing fragrance that shows great efficacy in relieving stress and relieving stress. It also acts as a natural preservative to safely store the formulated product.

The rosemary essential oil may include 5 to 50% by weight based on the total weight of the composition. When the content of the essential oil of rosemary is less than 5% by weight, the stress relieving effect and the relaxation effect by the rosemary essential oil may not be properly realized. When the content of the essential oil is more than 50% by weight, And the cost efficiency may be reduced.

The perfume composition may include at least one selected from the group consisting of honey extract, grape extract, and plum extract as an active ingredient.

The term " honey " refers to a honey bee that converts and stores pollen and pollen collected from flowers of various plants into glucose, glucose, fructose, carbohydrates, minerals, Pollen and so on. The honey has been used for a long time for nourishing, soothing, detoxifying, restoring fatigue, gastrointestinal disorder, coughing, dry skin, eczema, constipation, nervous breakdown, lowering blood sugar, maintaining metabolism balance, It is known that vitamin B group, especially B6, is abundantly contained.

The honey extract may be prepared by a conventional extraction method well known in the art. For example, 1 kg of a honey extract is placed in water at 10 to 12 times the weight, extracted at 4 ° C for 24 hours while being stirred, Followed by filtration.

The "grape ( Vitis vinifera L.) "is one of the fruits produced in the world and the most, and contains a large amount of anthocyanin which is known as a natural pigment in grape pericarp, grape seed, the (+) - catechin, (-) - catechin epimers, (-) - epicatechin-3-gallate and the like, dimer, trimer and procyanide of tetramer. The grape is antioxidant, such as inhibiting lipid peroxidation and free radical scavenging. Anti-inflammatory effects such as inhibition of cyclooxygenase, and cancer-preventing efficacy.

The " Prunus mume ) "is a fruit of plum tree, ripened in June ~ July with yellow color and strong in acidity. The plum contains a large amount of citric acid and has excellent germicidal effect. The plums are reported to sterilize dysentery, diarrhea, influenza, typhoid, cholera and the like in 5 to 60 minutes. In addition, it is known that natural citric acid, which is contained in a large amount in the plum, releases such harmful substances in the body such as acetic acid and grape, and changes the constitution to weak alkalinity. In addition, the plum contains citric acid, organic acids such as malic acid, succinic acid, tartaric acid, and various minerals in abundance.

Particularly, citric acid is a kind of? -Hydroxy acid, which is a compound having an alcoholic hydroxy group in the carbon source at the? -Position relative to the carboxy group in the molecule and is a compound effective for dry skin, .

The honey extract, grape extract, and plum extract may contain various kinds of active ingredients and assist and enhance the action of vitamins contained in a large amount in the perfume composition, thereby enhancing stress relaxation and mental and physical stability of the perfume composition.

The above-mentioned "extract" refers to a solvent in which an effective ingredient contained in an extraction raw material has been transferred by contacting a solvent and an extraction raw material under specific conditions. If a substance is separated from a natural product, the extraction method, You can include them all regardless.

For example, it may include extracts of components dissolved in a solvent from natural products by using water or an organic solvent, and specific components of natural products, such as oils obtained by extracting only specific components such as oil. The extract can be obtained by drying and then pulverizing the nanocloprosis oseanica, or various extraction methods known in the art such as a hot water extraction method and an ethanol extraction method.

Wherein the extract is selected from the group consisting of water, an anhydrous or lower alcohol having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, acetone, petroleum ether, ethyl acetate, butyl acetate, trichloromethane, dichloromethane, chloroform, hexane and 1,3-butylene glycol (V / v) of ethanol, and more particularly, it can be extracted with a concentration of 60 to 80% (v / v) ethanol.

The extraction ratio of the active ingredient contained in the raw material may be different depending on the polarity of the solvent. Since the ethanol is excellent in selectivity for extracting a physiologically active substance from a natural raw material, the ethanol extract can realize an optimal stress relaxation effect Can

Since the water and ethanol have different polarities and the effective components to be extracted depend on the polarity, the concentration of ethanol can be appropriately controlled so that an optimal skin improving effect can be realized. At this time, if the concentration of ethanol is less than 60%, the effective ingredient showing the stress relieving effect may not be extracted sufficiently, and if it is more than 80%, the proper yield may not be realized.

The extract is washed with water, dried and pulverized, and extracted and extracted with a solvent having a volume of 8 to 12 times the weight of the raw material for about 1 to 24 hours by a conventional method such as circulation extraction, pressure extraction, Followed by filtration. In addition, the extract can be obtained in powder form by an additional process such as vacuum distillation or freeze-drying.

The extract may also contain an extract which has been subjected to a conventional purification process. For example, the extract may be subjected to various purification methods such as separation using an ultrafiltration membrane having a constant molecular weight cut-off value, separation by various chromatography (manufactured for separation according to size, charge, hydrophobicity or affinity) Lt; RTI ID = 0.0 > fractions. ≪ / RTI >

In this case, the perfume composition may include 10 to 30 parts by weight of the honey extract, 10 to 30 parts by weight of the grape extract, and 10 to 30 parts by weight of the plum extract. In the case where the content deviation between the respective active ingredients constituting the extract is out of the above range, a synergistic effect due to interaction between the active ingredients may not be properly realized. Therefore, considering the working environment and the quality of the final product, Can be appropriately controlled.

The perfume composition may further comprise tocopheryl acetate, panthenol, and biotin.

The tocopheryl acetate is known as vitamin E acetate and is known to protect skin from harmful oxygen. It is used as an alternative to pure tocopherol and has antioxidant effects such as inhibiting the oxidation of unsaturated fatty acids constituting the cell membrane. The tocopheryl acetate can promote fatigue and mental and physical stability and mitigate stress.

The panthenol exists in two types, D-panthenol and L-panthenol. D-Panthenol is an alcohol derivative of pantothenic acid (vitamin B5) and is called provitamin B5 or dexpanthenol. L Panthenol is an optical isomer of D-panthenol, which has the same molecular formula but different properties. DL Panthenol has a racemic structure with 50% of D-Panthenol and 50% of L-Panthenol. A racemic structure refers to an optically inactive structure in which the optical isomer having a right-turning property and the optical isomer having a left-turning property are the same amount. Both D-Panthenol and L-Panthenol have moisturizing capacity, but only D-Panthenol has biological activity

Skin stress or skin disease is associated with vitamin B5 deficiency. D Panthenol changes into pantothenic acid when it enters the skin. It promotes wound healing due to its ability to bind moisture, has excellent moisturizing properties, and has anti-inflammatory and anti-irritating properties.

The biotin is a kind of vitamin called vitamin B7 or coenzyme R and is one of water-soluble vitamins. It is involved in the synthesis of glucose and fatty acids, generates energy from amino acids, and plays an important role in the synthesis of DNA.

Although the biotin is not abundantly contained in natural foods, deficiency symptoms do not appear well due to an efficient system in the human body. However, ingestion of unripe egg whites in excess (12 to 24 per day) may result in deficiency of biotin when the biotin digestive enzymes are inherently deficient. When the biotin is deficient, symptoms such as hair loss, dermatitis, loss of appetite, gray hair, insomnia, and neuropathy appear and the growth of infant or growing child is inhibited.

Meanwhile, the perfume composition may further comprise one vegetable oil selected from the group consisting of coconut oil, avocado oil, and mixtures thereof.

Tryptophan is an essential amino acid and is not produced in the body. Therefore, a sufficient amount of serotonin to induce a good night's sleep, a sufficient amount of tryptophan must be introduced into the body to produce melatonin. Coconut oil and avocado oil are rich in tryptophan, and tryptophan, which enters the body through coconut oil and avocado oil, can be converted to serotonin and melatonin by vitamin B in mango extract and guava extract.

In addition, since the natural raw material contains only the EWG level 1 component, it satisfies both functionality and safety and is easy to apply to sensitive skin because it is not harmful.

EWG is a cosmetic ingredient harmful grade announced by EWG (Environmental Working Group), a nonprofit environmental NGO in the United States. EWG carefully examines the harmfulness of cosmetic ingredients and classifies the hazard level from 1 to 10, and 1 Class 2 and Class 2 are classified as safety class.

Another aspect of the present invention provides a cosmetic composition comprising the perfume composition. The content of the perfume composition may be 0.001 to 10% by weight, preferably 0.01 to 5% by weight, based on the total weight of the cosmetic composition. If the content of the perfume composition is less than 0.001% by weight, the effect is not expected to be expected. If the content is more than 10% by weight, the strength is strong and the palatability to the fragrance may be lowered.

The cosmetic composition may be formulated into at least one selected from the group consisting of softening agents, nutritional lotion, nutritional cream, massage cream, essence, ampoule, gel, eye cream, cleansing cream, cleansing foam, cleansing water, pack, spray and powder .

The cosmetic composition may be appropriately blended with other ingredients within the range of not hindering the object of the present invention depending on the type of the active ingredient, the purpose of use, and the like in each formulation.

Also, depending on the quality or function of the final product, there may be used various additives such as a fatty substance, an organic solvent, a solubilizing agent, a thickening agent, a gelling agent, a softening agent, an antioxidant, a suspending agent, a stabilizer, a foaming agent, A surfactant, a stabilizer, a stabilizer, an antioxidant, an antioxidant, an antioxidant, a preservative, a barrier agent, a wetting agent, an essential oil, a dye, a pigment, a hydrophilic or lipophilic active agent, And may further comprise adjuvants commonly used in cosmetics or dermatology, such as any of the other ingredients.

However, it is preferable that the adjuvant and the mixing ratio thereof are appropriately selected so as not to affect the preferable properties of the cosmetic composition according to the present invention.

Hereinafter, the present invention will be described in further detail with reference to Examples, but it should be apparent that the present invention is not limited by the following Examples.

Experimental Example  2: Stress Self-Diagnosis Assessment

In order to confirm stress relieving and relieving efficacy against Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4, a stress self-diagnostic evaluation was conducted on men and women in their 20s to 30s who are expected to be most stressed .

100 subjects were classified into groups of 10, and the stress relieving effect by the perfume composition including the samples of Examples and Comparative Examples was evaluated.

The fragrance compositions comprising the samples of the Examples and Comparative Examples were placed in an enclosed space so that the subjects could stay in the enclosed space for more than one hour a day.

This experiment was conducted on subjects who were suitable for the purpose of the experiment, and evaluated before use and once a day for one week. The stress self-diagnostic evaluation items are shown in Table 2 below.

[Score: 'not at all' = 0, 'not so' = 1, 'yes' = 2, 'very agree' = 3] question score 1. It is easily irritated and fluctuates greatly. 2. The skin was rough and various skin diseases were severe. 3. The muscles of the whole body are strained and poke around. 4. I can not sleep well or can not get a deep sleep, and I often wake up from sleep. 5. Everything is self-confident and self-deprecating. 6. I feel nervous without any reason. 7. Feeling tired easily. 8. I do not concentrate on everything and my work (learning) is inefficient. 9. If you look at the food, you can not stand the urge to eat. 10. I do not have appetite, I do not eat well or suddenly become binge. 11. My memory is bad and I forget it.

The scores after the self-diagnosis of the stress can be summed to determine the degree of stress. The interpretation of the result according to the score is as follows.

0 to 11 points: Stress index 0%, almost unstressed

12-13 points: Stress index 20%, slightly stressed

14-16 points: Stress index 40%, Relatively stressful condition

17-20: stress index 60%, not the worst, but under extreme stress

21 points or more: a stress index of 80%

The results of the above-mentioned stress self-diagnosis test are shown in Table 3 below. The average of the stress scores before and after the experiment and the stress relieving rate (%) are shown in Table 3 below.

[Unit: Resolution rate (%)] Remarks Example Comparative Example One 2 3 4 5 6 One 2 3 4 Before experiment 17.7 16.8 17.3 17.2 16.6 16.5 16.7 17.1 17.7 16.8 After the experiment 14.3 13.6 13.9 12.6 12.0 11.5 15.1 14.9 14.3 13.6 Resolution rate 19.2 19.0 19.7 26.7 28.3 30.3 9.6 12.9 19.2 19.0

The stress relieving rate by the perfume composition containing the samples of Examples 1 to 6 reached 20 to 30%. Particularly, in Example 4 containing both honey extract, grape extract, and plum extract, the stress relieving rate was evaluated to be higher than in Examples 1 to 3.

In addition, the perfume composition (Example 5) further comprising tocopheryl acetate, panthenol, and biotin (Example 5) and the perfume composition further containing coconut oil and avocado oil (Example 6) Respectively.

Thus, the results suggest that the rosemary essential oil may work together with the natural extract and other ingredients to further improve mental and physical stability and stress relief.

Experimental Example  2: Evaluation of physiological and psychological effects of perfume composition

(EEG) of the central nervous system, the average heart rate interval (average RR interval) of the autonomic nervous system, and the perfume composition of Examples 1 to 6 and Comparative Examples 1 to 4 in order to objectively evaluate the physiological / , And skin electrical resistance were measured. The concrete method is as follows.

(1) Subjects

The subjects were healthy and did not take the medication at present. They were 40 women in their 20s and 30s who were not blind.

On the day of the experiment, we refrained from smoking, drinking, drugs, and gums, which could affect the central nervous system and olfactory. The results of this study are as follows. First, we investigated the effects of sexual cycle on the sensory change of female, the female physiological cycle and mood.

(2) Experimental conditions

Experiments were carried out in the olfactory laboratory (4.8m × 3m × 2.4m). Intake and exhaust facilities were installed in the interior for the purpose of reducing the olfactory adaptation. Maximization of participant participation and experiment A soundproofing device is installed. The internal temperature (25 ℃), humidity (40-50%) and illumination (150-200 Lx) were kept constant during the experiment. After the experiment on one condition was completed, the subjects were ventilated in the laboratory to make sure they were resting enough to avoid compliance with the fragrance and fatigue.

(3) Measurement method

EEG was applied to the frontal lobe, parietal lobe, temporal lobe, and occipital lobe according to the International 10-20 Electrode Arrangement method using GRASS (USA), MP 100 system (USA), and Acknowledge program (USA) Respectively. The resistance between each measurement site was set to less than 10 kΩ and the sampling rate was set to 512 Hz.

Electrocardiogram (CMG) and electrocardiogram (ECG) were attached to the chest. Electrocardiogram (Galvanic skin response) was measured by attaching the sensor to the left hand stop and the ring finger. Physiological signals were measured using an MP 100 system and an Acknowledge program. The sampling rate was set to 512 Hz.

(4) Experimental method

Under the condition that the subject closed his eyes, the incense container was kept at a distance of 1-2 cm under the nose for 1 minute, and physiological signals were measured during the fragrance. In order to rule out the effect of order on flavor, the order of flavor was randomized for each subject.

(5) Analysis method

The data were analyzed by measuring 50 female subjects. After analyzing the EEG power spectrum by the FFT method, we calculated α / (α + β + θ + δ) and β / (α + β + θ + δ) according to the frequency band. The EEG mapping program (BrainMap 3D, (Neuromedi, Korea) were used to map the brain waves according to the time while taking incense.

The heart rate change rate (HRV) is obtained by calculating the average RR interval from the R point detected by the electrocardiogram and by using the power spectrum analysis by the FFT method, LF (Low frequency: 0.04-0.08 Hz) and HF (High frequency: 0.15 -0.4 Hz). The skin electrical resistance (GSR) was calculated by using the potential difference between the two sensors, and the change with time and the average amplitude of the waveform. Each physiological signal was compared with normalized sensitivity by normalizing the physiological signal value of the angular condition with respect to the non-ionic condition.

Mean values and standard deviations of the physiological signals according to experimental conditions were obtained. Statistical analysis was performed by SPSS program using ANOVA and t-test. Correlation was analyzed by Pearson correlation analysis.

(6) Experimental results

Peripheral nervous system response to perfume composition was measured by EEG and the ratio of relative alpha and relative beta waves was analyzed.

Table 4 shows the results of analysis of the relative ratio of the alpha waves after use of the perfume composition of the present invention. The alpha wave is an EEG that appears when a person is in a relaxed state. A high ratio means that the subject is comfortable accepting the provided incense, while the highly activated incense means that the user relaxes and calms the body.

As shown in Table 4, the fragrance composition of Example 1 had a higher ratio of alpha-pha to that of Comparative Examples 1 to 4. The fragrance composition of Example 4, compared to Examples 1 to 3, And the extract of honey, grape extract, and plum extract, both directly or indirectly enhanced the stimulation of serotonin secretion by rosemary essential oil.

In addition, the perfume composition (Example 5) further comprising tocopheryl acetate, panthenol, and biotin, and the perfume composition (Example 6) further comprising coconut oil and avocado oil are evaluated as more effectively promoting serotonin secretion.

The results of the heart rate change and skin electrical resistance measurement after use of the perfume composition are shown in Tables 6 to 8.

First, the rate of heart rate change is a measure of the frequency of heart rate. In this experiment, the mean heart rate interval (mean R-R interval: RRI) was measured. The frequency of heart rate increases with tension, so the heart rate interval becomes narrower, and the frequency of heart rate during relaxation decreases, thus increasing the heart rate interval. That is, the increase in the average R-R interval means that the heart is running slowly, which means that it feels comfortable and stable.

Referring to Table 6, the perfume compositions of Examples 1 to 6 showed a wider heart interval than those of Comparative Examples 1 to 4, and the perfume composition of Example 4 had a wider heart interval than those of Examples 1 to 4.

In addition, the heart rate gap was further increased by the perfume composition (Example 5) further comprising tocopheryl acetate, panthenol, and biotin and the perfume composition (Example 6) further comprising coconut oil and avocado oil.

The activity ratio (LF / HF) of the sympathetic nerve to the parasympathetic nerve of the heart after use of the perfume composition is shown in Table 7. The sympathetic activation ratio (LF / HF) of the cardiac parasympathetic nerve is proportional to sympathetic nerve activity and inversely proportional to parasympathetic activity. The low activation ratio (LF / HF) of the sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves in the heart means that the activity of the sympathetic nerves is low, which means that the brain is in a stable state.

Referring to Table 7, the fragrance compositions of Examples 1 to 6 showed a decrease in the activity ratio (LF / HF) of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves of the heart compared with Comparative Examples 1 to 4, The perfume composition of Examples 1 to 6 can be considered to stabilize brain activity.

Table 8 shows the results of comparing the average skin electrical resistance for 1 minute after use of the perfume composition. The skin electrical resistance refers to the change with time and the average amplitude value (potential difference) of the waveform. When tensed, the amplitude value becomes larger. When relaxed, the amplitude value becomes smaller.

Further, the average amplitude value was further reduced by the perfume composition (Example 5) further comprising tocopheryl acetate, panthenol, and biotin and the perfume composition (Example 6) further comprising coconut oil and avocado oil.
