PERFUME BOOSTERS AND FIXATIVE
In the past, animal-based
products such as ambergris and civet were added as fixative to obtain a more lingering
effect. At present these animal products are "producta non grata" and
hardly in use anymore.
In
fine perfumery often one works with delicate raw materials, resulting in a concentrate
with outstanding fragrance properties but not lasting and lingering as long
as one might expect considering the usually high costprice of the compound.
Remains the fact that in many cases a good fixative is needed. So we developed
FIXADURE, a 100% natural based fixative, giving the perfume concentrates just
a little more body and making them more longlasting. Two warnings: FIXADURE has
some influence on your perfume note and secondly it is not cheap (about € 220,00
per kilo).
Advise
dosage: 1 - 4 % in your perfume concentrate.
Boosters: If
you need a product to enhance your perfume concentrate and also to make it more
radiant we advise you to try one of our following boosters:
| BOOSTER LF | € 45,-- per kilo, for light flowery compounds. |
| BOOSTER H |
€ 54,--
per kilo, for heavy balsamic compounds.
|
| BOOSTER M | € 42,-- per kilo, for musk type compounds. |
| BOOSTER PH | 54,-- per kilo, for phantasy compounds |
| BOOSTER FA | 64,-- per kilo, for french aldehydic compounds |
All boosters will have some influence on the perfume note !
Advise dosage: 2 - 10 % in your perfume concentrate.
Example of the use of one of our boosters. A manufacturer of a luxury soap is using a musk compound as perfume for his soap at a dosage of 1,75%. The customer however, wanted to have his musk soap more radiant, more outspoken musk. Upon our advise he added 6% of our BOOSTER M to his musk perfume compound. His dosage in the soap remained the same and the final result was a much better musk fragrance in his soap.
