Tentang bahan ini
Cosmetic and food-grade extract of Yoshino cherry (Prunus × yedoensis) blossoms, harvested during the brief late-March / early-April bloom. The pickled flower (sakura-zuke) has 600+ years of Japanese culinary use; modern cosmetic-grade extract emerged in the 1990s, positioned for skin-brightening and antioxidant applications based on caffeoylquinic acid and caffeoylsucrose content. Production is highly seasonal and place-specific — Yoshino (Nara), Hirosaki (Aomori), and Izumiya producers (Saitama) are the historical extract suppliers. Often paired with cherry-blossom fragrance / floral-positioning packaging in spring-edition retail.
