This is not a perfume. It is a highly concentrated fragrance oil designed for crafting end products such as candles, diffusers, perfumes, soaps, and other personal care items. Do not apply directly to the skin. All our fragrance oils are measured in grams, not milliliters. Bottle fill levels may vary due to differences in oil density, which affects volume.
This material is supplied as a raw ingredient. Full compositional and allergen information is provided in the SDS and Allergen Declaration documents found in the “Related Documents” tab. Compliance of the final product remains the responsibility of the manufacturer.

Guaiac Forest Fragrance Oil is a base-driven woody composition built around a highly concentrated aromatic structure that emphasizes depth and natural character. The green opening is supported by fresh aromatic materials that provide lift, while the heart transitions into a rich woody accord shaped by modern diffusion elements. Subtle balsamic and fruity nuances add warmth and complexity without compromising the dry, forest-like profile. The result is a grounded and refined fragrance with a dense woody core and a long-lasting, evolving presence.

Discoloration potential: Light
Very stable carrier (benzyl benzoate), but minor terpene and resin contents could cause gentle yellowing or deepening of the natural tone over extended periods.
- Slow deepening of the slight yellow hue is possible over time, especially under exposure to light, heat, or air.
- Candles, diffusers, and soaps will likely maintain a nice color stability but should expect a mild intensification of yellowness after many months.
- Proper storage (sealed, dark, cool) will maintain visual appeal for a long time.
Application Compatibility
This fragrance is oil-soluble and designed for use in oil-based and alcohol-based formulations. It does not mix directly with water-based systems without the use of an appropriate solubilizer.
Storage
Store in a cool, dark, and airtight environment to preserve stability and minimize oxidation over time.
Usage & Performance
Fragrance performance varies depending on the base, formulation, and production conditions. Cold throw, hot throw, diffusion strength, and longevity are influenced by the materials used and the manufacturing process.
A typical development process involves:
- Initial scent evaluation (10g sample)
- Small batch testing (e.g. 50g scale)
- Full-scale production once performance is validated
Testing under your specific conditions is standard practice in product development. Evaluation at each stage is required prior to scaling.
Recommended usage guidelines
- Candles: 7%-12%
- Reed diffusers: 15%-25%
- Personal perfumes: 10%-15%
- Soaps: 1%-3%

What a woody delight from the minute I opened the bottle! Soft, warm and inviting with hints of fruits (fig?) here and there… Exquisite fragrance! I will definitely buy a larger size next time!

Very interesting scent. Woody and green. I tried it in CP soap. Its very well behaving! Also, neutral for the skin. So very happy with it! I’m new customer, would be very happy to test more of the fragrances from Perfumedom! 🙂

A delicate yet strong scent of a fresh green forest. Beautiful!
pinelopi.papazacharia (verified owner) –
Very natural scent. Smells of grass and forest. Works ok with candles, I would say the scent is around 6.8/10 strong in my soy candles

Great Fragance for CP soapmaking with a fabulous scent: fresh, green and delicate. It does not accelerate and gives plenty time for swirling. No separation. No discoloration. No Ricing.

It is good for candle making.
Kristina Petrova (verified owner) –
A good scent for winter and autumn. Very woody and attention grabbing. I used it in candles and it has a good hot and cold scent throw.

Fragranza che sa davvero di foglie umide ed erba fresca ma forse non è il mio odore preferito per una candela. Ad ogni modo è piacevole.
Tomahawk (verified owner) –
It is fresh, greenish with hints of fruit. I like it a lot but some people did not.
eriberry33 (verified owner) –
It is an interesting scent, I would say this is more like a manly scent.

I didn’t quite like it, but I don’t hate it either.
nivinfin (verified owner) –
The restrained smell of wood, very pleasant
sara.z.loric (verified owner) –
Not my personal favourite forest fragrance. It is more on the exotic side. Definitely different from coniferous scents. Green notes come through nicely.
Melanie Cerncic (verified owner) –
Reminds me of the Indian rain forest. Very earthy and woody. Don’t expect a complete woody scent. You can smell a hint of exotic spices. Used in candles with 10%.

Very-very green, may be too match on my taste
