Please note
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.
Behavioral Profile
- Diffusion: Medium–high, rich and enveloping
- Texture: Floral-spicy with creamy woody warmth
- Opening Impression: Bright citrus, ginger spice, and dark florals
- Structure: Exotic floral core melting into resinous sandalwood softness
- Character: Seductive, opulent and mysterious
Black Orchid and Ylang Fragrance Oil blends exotic florals with warm spice and creamy woods in a distinctly sensual composition. Bright lemon and ginger provide lift at the opening before the formula quickly unfolds into a dense floral heart shaped by high levels of Linalool, Geraniol, and ylang-style materials. Eugenol and Isoeugenol introduce a dark clove nuance that gives the fragrance its seductive depth, while sandalwood, patchouli, and benzoin soften the drydown into a smooth balsamic finish. The result is a rich floral fragrance with strong atmosphere, elegant warmth, and a noticeably luxurious dark-floral signature.

Discoloration Potential: Light
The composition of Black Orchid and Ylang Fragrance Oil is moderately prone to oxidation due to linalool, geraniol, and similar alcohols, but the fragrance is relatively stable overall. Expect only mild yellowing over time, without dramatic darkening.
- Over time, slight deepening of the yellow hue may occur, but no intense or alarming discoloration should be expected.
- Very suitable for pale-colored bases (e.g., white or cream waxes, pale liquid bases) where only slight warming in tone is acceptable.
- To maintain freshness, store in cool, dark, and sealed conditions to minimize oxidation and color changes.
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%

Intoxicating fragrance. Accelerates in cold process soap. Best for simple designs. No discoloration. Would work beautifully in hot process or melt and pour.

This is a flower bomb through and through! No need to go to max load with this one. Stay at the lower end of the recommended dosage

Very heavy floral, super strong and the ylang ylang is very prominent.

jdvivasmartin (verified owner) –
You can clearly tell the ylang is there, expected a slightly stronger scent, but still a good pick
Melanie Cerncic (verified owner) –
A very heavy scent. The Ylang Ylang might help to soften the orchid note a bit. But still on the strong side due to the black orchid.
strullarella (verified owner) –
Profumo molto forte ma buono
achipano (verified owner) –
I love this fragrance it floreal but also dark scent
lilacdays (verified owner) –
Very interesting scent in which the ylang ylang is not only photorealistic, but is also quite prominent. It’s strong, and it can be a bit cloying.
Tom –
I’ll try my best to describe the smell:
It is a strong contrast of two distinct scents:
1. A nice sexy dark black orchid scent, very similar to tom ford black orchid. Masterpiece, smells amazing.
2. A strong, somewhat fresh but super annoying and cloying yellow flower smell that is completely out of place.
The two oils separately would both be nice, but the do not fit together. The ylang makes it go from a literal 10/10 to a 4/10. Sorry perfumedom

Great floral and strong scent.
ivorycinders (verified owner) –
It’s a very heavy fragrance. Personally its a bit much for me.

This is a lovely scent, but it is not for me. People who like orchid, violet, and ylang love this scent, but those are not my personal preferences.
