Cinnamon Essential Oil Formulations With Chemical and Sensory Data

Fractional distillation produced formulations simulating premium Ceylon cinnamon bark oil. Chemical compositions, including trans-cinnamaldehyde (81.1%) and eugenol (5.3%), were analyzed via GC-MS and GC-FID. The dataset was created by Chamini Madushika Panadura Lokuge and last updated in April 2026.

Use Cases

• Predict overall sensory acceptability from chemical composition percentages like trans-cinnamaldehyde and eugenol.
• Analyze relationships between eight sensory attributes and specific chemical compounds such as α-pinene and β-caryophyllene.
• Compare the chemical profiles of different essential oil fractions and formulated blends.
• Model the impact of fractional distillation on key aroma compounds in cinnamon oil.

Strengths

• Chemical composition data includes specific percentages for 10 key compounds.
• Sensory evaluation data covers eight distinct attributes and overall acceptability.
• Analytical methods (GC-MS, GC-FID) are clearly specified.

Limitations

• The dataset is very small, consisting of only 327.6 KB of supporting documents.
• The exact number of samples, formulations, or data rows is not provided.
• Geographic origin of the raw materials and specific sample sizes are unknown.
