The Ente plum, is native to the southwest of France (Lot-et-Garonne) and is used essentially to make the Agen prune, also known as the "Black Gold of Aquitaine".

This unique French origin gives our Virgin Prunus Oil its rare and precious character.

Tasted fresh, the plum has an excellent antioxidant activity. This property is found in the oil, naturally rich in tocopherols. It protects the skin from external aggressions and is stable to oxidation.

Our Virgin Prunus Oil is obtained by first cold pressing the kernels found in the pits of plums. This unique and exclusive process is a co-evaluation of the Agen prune production. Laboratoires Expanscience is thus participating in the local economic dynamism and is part of a process of valorization of local products.

With its unique fragrance, this oil is particularly recommended for the formulation of fragrance-free products.
