Green Tea & Pear Fragrance Oil, 10 ml

Fragrance oil, green tea with pear

Green tea with pear fragrance oil combines a fresh tea scent with the fruity note of pear and serves as a fragrance ingredient for cosmetics, soaps, candles and diffusers. It is a cosmetic-grade synthetic fragrance composition of European origin, free from ingredients of animal origin. Its only role in a formulation is to give the product its fragrance. It is therefore used in a small amount and added at the very end of production.

For every category of finished product, from lip products to candles, the maximum usage rate is set by the IFRA certificate available with the product.

Fragrance profile

Green tea gives the composition a fresh, slightly herbal base, while pear adds a sweeter, juicier fruity note. The result feels light and clean. This profile works well with neutral bases such as shower gels, body lotions or undyed candles, where it is not overpowered by the scent of the base ingredients.

Use in formulations

The fragrance oil is oil-soluble and not water-soluble. It can be mixed directly into balms and body oils, as the oil phase dissolves it. In creams and lotions it is added during the cool-down phase, when the emulsion is below 40 °C, and stirred in briefly. At this temperature the volatile components do not evaporate unnecessarily and the finished product keeps its full profile. The composition is clear, so it does not colour an emulsion, gel or wax on its own.

Water-based products, that is toners, facial lotions, air fresheners or fragrance sprays, require a solubiliser (for example Polysorbate 20 or Polysorbate 80). The fragrance oil is first mixed with the solubiliser and only then stirred into the water phase. Without this step an oily film remains on the surface or the product turns cloudy.

In candles, the oil is added to the melted wax at the temperature recommended by the wax manufacturer and mixed thoroughly so that the fragrance is distributed evenly. We recommend checking the cold throw and hot throw on a test candle, as every wax binds fragrance oils differently. In diffusers it is diluted in the diffuser base according to its instructions.

In cold process soap, we recommend making a test batch before a larger one and checking whether the fragrance accelerates trace and whether it changes the colour of the soap over time.

Suitable for products such as

• Shower gels and liquid soaps – the fresh tea and fruit character suits rinse-off products, where the fragrance should feel light.
• Body lotions, creams and oils – added to the cooled emulsion or directly to the oil base.
• Facial creams and toners – a solubiliser is essential for toners, with the usage rate based on IFRA category 5B.
• Bath bombs – the fragrance oil is mixed into the oil component of the recipe.
• Candles – both container and pillar candles, within the IFRA category 12 limit and the wax manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Diffusers and fragrance sprays – as a home fragrance, in a spray with a solubiliser or in an alcohol base.
• Hair care products – shampoos, conditioners and styling products according to the relevant IFRA category.
