[0002] With the acceleration of the pace of life, people are prone to drowsiness and fatigue, which affect work and learning efficiency. Refreshing drugs can extend the waking time by reducing the degree of drowsiness and fatigue, achieving the effects of improving attention, reaction speed, and learning ability. The active ingredients of aromatic traditional Chinese medicines can excite the central nervous system, reduce sleep duration, and improve learning and cognitive abilities. Plant essential oils are a class of volatile secondary metabolites of plants extracted from parts such as flowers, leaves, stems, roots, and fruits of plants, with various effects and uses. They have a small molecular weight and can be distilled with water vapor, having a certain aromatic smell and being oily substances that can volatilize at room temperature, and are widely used in various fields. However, problems such as easy volatilization, easy oxidation, and low absorption rate of active ingredients limit the use of plant essential oils; liposomes are microsphere carriers formed by encapsulating active ingredients with a lipid bilayer. Water-soluble components can be encapsulated in the inner aqueous phase, and lipophilic components can be encapsulated between the bilayer.

[0100] Take Examples 1 - 3 and Comparative Examples 3 - 4, and conduct product preservation experiments in an open environment at 50 °C. Samples are taken at 0 d, 2 d, 4 d, and 6 d respectively. Using eugenol as an external standard, the eugenol content is detected by gas chromatography. Taking the eugenol content at 0 d as the reference value, the preservation rate is calculated using the following formula:
[0101] Preservation rate = measured eugenol content / reference value × 100%.
[0102] Figure 5 It is a result graph of the preservation experiments of Examples 1 - 3 and Comparative Examples 3 - 4. As shown in the figure, for Examples 1 - 3 and Comparative Examples 3 - 4, the preservation rates at 6 d are 63.65%, 65.81%, 64.59%, 46.22%, and 53.15% respectively; the preservation rate of Examples 1 - 3 is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 3, indicating that the use of terpiosomes can improve the preservation rate of active substances, and the preservation rate of Examples 1 - 3 is significantly higher than that of Comparative Example 4, indicating that the addition of rose extract can improve the preservation rate of active substances; the terpiosomes wrap the active ingredients with a phospholipid bilayer, slowing down the volatilization and oxidation rates, and the rose extract has good antioxidant properties, which can protect the active substances from oxidation and extend the preservation time.
