This USDA Certified Organic perfumers alcohol base provides a clean, neutral solvent for organic fragrance creation and formulation when clarity and performance matter. It contains no denaturants or unnecessary additives that can interfere with scent integrity or evaporation performance.

Ideal for makers who need a reliable, high-proof organic alcohol to dissolve aromatic raw materials and fragrance concentrates for perfume blending and related aromatic applications. Certified organic for quality and sustainability by the Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners Association (MOFGA).

Primary Uses and Applications

This organic perfumers alcohol base is commonly selected for:

  • Dissolving fragrance raw materials and aroma compounds
  • Custom perfume formulation and blending
  • Making sprayable fine fragrance concentrates
  • Creating solid perfume bases and tinctures
  • Other organic aromatic projects where neutral solvent performance matters

Using a high-proof organic base allows you to control dilution and finish in your formulations while minimizing unintended scent distortion.

Why Choose a Pure Organic 200 Proof Base for Homemade Perfume Recipes

  • Zero additives: no masking agents, fixatives, or denaturants
  • USDA Certified Organic: traceable organic origin and sustainability
  • Neutral evaporation: preserves the integrity of your fragrance blend
  • Maximum solvency: efficiently dissolves resinous and volatile aromatic materials
  • Flexible formulation: dilute to desired strength for Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette, sprays, or other aromatic products

Starting with a pure organic 200 proof base gives you maximum flexibility to tailor your blends and final products.

How Culinary Solvent Differs From Denatured Organic Perfumer’s Alcohol

Many perfumer’s alcohol products on the market are denatured with additives that make them unfit for clean organic fragrance work and that can alter solvent characteristics. This product contains only pure organic ethanol with zero additives, giving you a starting solvent that supports clean, predictable, organic blending.

Important Notes on Use and Handling

This alcohol is sold as a high-purity certified organic solvent for fragrance and aromatic formulation. It is not intended for recreational consumption. Due to its high proof, proper handling, storage, and local regulatory compliance are recommended. Always dilute appropriately for your specific application.
