Regular Fragrances Vs. Luxury Fragrances

by | published

Kick your candle making know-how up a notch by learning the difference between luxury and regular fragrance oils.There are so many different fragrance suppliers on the market, so how do you know which ones are of the best quality? Lucky for you, this is the perfect video for you!

Luxury fragrances are designed using a global palette of raw materials with exotic and well-balanced accords to project a rich, luxurious character. They are often multi-dimensional and sophisticated and curated by master perfumers. 

In order to spot these, look for unique ingredients sourced from all over the world. These usually include essential oils and fine fragrance oils. They are not readily available to the mass market. They usually include accords like rich spices, warm woods, earthy tones, honey, smoke, florals, bergamot and tangerine. These are usually associated with luxury fragrances with delicate balances of speciality ingredients like jasmine, rose, tobacco, patchouli, vetiver, oud, and chamomile. 

When choosing your fragrances, you want to choose ones with multiple top, middle, and base notes.
