Description and Key Features
Our Floral Musk Fragrance Oil is a transparent liquid, delivering a luxurious, gentle, floral musky aroma. Its intricate scent profile combines:
- Top Notes: Hints of invigorating citrus provide an initial bright and fresh impression.
- Middle Notes: Aromatic lavender and a subtle blend of spices introduce a sophisticated, comforting warmth.
- Base Notes: Rich, enveloping musk anchors the fragrance, providing a long-lasting and incredibly sensual finish.
This fragrance oil demonstrates superb solubility, dissolving easily in alcohols (ethanol, propylene glycol, perfumer's alcohol, benzyl alcohol, isopropyl alcohol, isopropyl myristate, diethyl phthalate) while maintaining solution clarity. It also mixes perfectly with oils but is insoluble in water.
Please note that this fragrance contains 1% vanillin. To prevent potential discoloration in your finished products, especially in white or light-colored bases, we highly recommend using a color stabilizer. This ensures the integrity of your product's appearance while allowing the beautiful scent to shine through.

Instructions for Preparation:
- Sanitization: Thoroughly sanitize all your equipment (beakers, stirring rods, containers) using isopropyl alcohol. Allow everything to air dry completely.
- Prepare Phase A: In a heat-safe beaker, combine Shea Butter, Mango Butter, Sweet Almond Oil, Fractionated Coconut Oil, and Stearic Acid.
- Prepare Phase B: In another heat-safe beaker, combine Distilled Water, Vegetable Glycerin, and Emulsifying Wax NF.
- Heat Phases: Heat both Phase A and Phase B separately in a double boiler or microwave safe containers until Phase A is fully melted and both phases reach approximately 70-75°C (158-167°F).
- Emulsification: Slowly pour Phase A into Phase B while continuously stirring with a stick blender or whisk. Blend for 3-5 minutes, ensuring a stable emulsion forms. Continue stirring occasionally as the mixture cools.
- Cool Down: Allow the emulsion to cool to below 45°C (113°F) before adding Phase C ingredients. Stir frequently during cooling to prevent skinning and ensure a smooth texture.
- Add Phase C: Once cooled, add Vitamin E Oil, Liquid Germall Plus, Floral Musk Fragrance Oil, and Vanillin Color Stabilizer (if using). Stir well for several minutes to ensure even distribution.
- Final Check: Check the pH of your body butter; it should typically be between 4.5 and 6.0 for skin compatibility. Adjust if necessary using a diluted lactic acid solution (to lower pH) or baking soda solution (to raise pH).
- Packaging: Transfer the finished body butter into clean, sterilized jars or containers.
Recommendations for Use:
- Inclusion Rate: For body butter and similar cosmetic products, a 1% inclusion rate of Floral Musk Fragrance Oil provides a balanced and noticeable scent. Adjust slightly up or down based on your desired intensity.
- Solubility Check: Remember that this fragrance oil is insoluble in water. Ensure it's properly incorporated into an oil-based formula or a stable emulsion where it can mix with the oil phase.
- Vanillin Content: Due to the 1% vanillin content, we strongly recommend using a vanillin color stabilizer (e.g., at 0.1-0.2% concentration) to prevent discoloration, especially in light-colored formulations. Test a small batch first.
- Storage: Store the finished body butter in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight, to maintain its texture, fragrance, and shelf life.
- Safety: Always conduct a patch test before full application of any new cosmetic product to check for sensitivities or allergic reactions.
- Usage: Apply a small amount of the body butter to clean, dry skin and massage until absorbed. Use daily for hydrated and beautifully scented skin.
