Perfumers Alcohol SD40-B 200 PROOF
BCL-PRFMRS-ALC-1000ML
Perfumers Alcohol SD40-B (200 Proof) is a high-purity, perfume-grade alcohol made from 100% natural grain ethanol. With its low odour and excellent clarity, this denatured alcohol is widely used as a carrier and solvent in the creation of fine fragrances and personal care formulations. It blends well with most essential oils and fragrance compounds, making it ideal for alcohol-based products such as Perfume, Eau de Parfum, Eau de Toilette, Eau de Cologne, Body Sprays, Room Sprays, and Linen Waters.
In high-alcohol formulations, Perfumers Alcohol can often dissolve fragrance and essential oils without the need for additional solubilizers. However, in water-based products or with certain heavier or resinous ingredients, an additional solubilizer may still be required for full clarity and stability.
Perfumers Alcohol SD40-B is commonly used in the creation of fragrance and personal care products such as perfumes, body sprays, room sprays, mists and facial toners. It helps dissolve and carry essential oils and fragrance oils, allowing for even scent distribution. It can be used on its own or combined with other ingredients to create your finished product.
As a general guideline, perfumes, colognes and Eau de parfum products often contain 70-95% Perfumers Alcohol, with the remaining percentage made up of fragrance or essential oils and any additional ingredients.
For body sprays or room sprays, lower concentrations of alcohol may be used, typically around 60–80%, depending on the formulation.
Facial products like toners typically contain much lower levels of alcohol, with concentrations ranging from as little as 0.5% up to 30%, depending on the formulation and intended skin type.
Some ingredients, especially heavier essential oils or water-based additives, may require a solubilizer for full clarity. Always test small batches first and store your finished product in suitable containers away from heat and direct sunlight.
