Moringa oil, also called ben oil, is pressed from moringa seeds and is prized for its high oleic acid content and unusual stability against rancidity. It is used in cosmetics and personal care for its light texture, and it was historically valued by perfumers for its ability to absorb and hold scent. Cold-pressed and refined grades differ in color, odor, and free fatty acid level.
