Expert Verdict
Same allergen profile as the flower oil but with broader phytochemical content from solvent extraction (includes flavonoids, tannins, rosmarinic acid). Sensitization risk primarily from linalool and oxidation products. The "/extract" designation indicates this may encompass both flower-derived aqueous/hydroalcoholic extracts and essential oil fractions. Broader bioactive profile than pure flower oil; the polyphenolic fraction provides antioxidant activity
