Lily of the Valley Absolute fragrance ingredient for perfumery compositions and cosmetic formulations
Lily of the Valley Absolute is used as an aromatic component in formulations where a clean floral profile with fresh green nuances is required. The ingredient is applied in perfumery, cosmetic products, and fragranced systems where stable scent performance and balanced diffusion are important.
Description
Lily of the Valley Absolute is a fragrance composition designed to reproduce the scent of Convallaria majalis. Due to the botanical characteristics of the plant, a classical natural absolute is not obtained in a standard way, so the material is created as a formulated blend that accurately reflects the recognizable floral profile.
The composition consists of aromatic molecules that deliver a soft floral accord with green and slightly aqueous nuances. It is used at low concentrations to provide a defined scent signature without overwhelming the formulation.
The ingredient is selected in product development where a recognizable floral note and stable integration across different formulation bases are required.
Where it is used
In perfumery, it is used to construct floral accords and fresh fragrance compositions.
In cosmetic products, it is incorporated into creams, lotions, shampoos, gels, and body care formulations as a fragrance component.
In fragranced applications, it is used in candles, diffusers, and air care products.
In household formulations, it is applied in products requiring a controlled and consistent scent profile.
In manufacturing, it is used as part of fragrance compositions across multiple product categories.
How it works
Lily of the Valley Absolute releases its scent through gradual evaporation of volatile aromatic compounds, creating a layered fragrance profile.
It enhances floral notes and helps connect top and middle accords within a composition.
In formulations, it supports even scent distribution and maintains olfactory consistency over time.
Behavior in formulation
The ingredient is typically introduced into the oil phase or pre-dissolved in alcohol or fragrance carriers for uniform dispersion.
It is compatible with essential oils, fragrance blends, alcohol systems, and oil bases.
To maintain stability, exposure to high temperatures and direct light should be minimized.
Dosage
Used at low inclusion levels depending on the formulation type and desired scent intensity. Exact values are defined in technical specifications.
