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, crisp and refined
- Texture: Citrusy-aromatic with soft creamy warmth
- Opening Impression: Sparkling bergamot and fresh tea steam
- Structure: Bright citrus tea core softened by musky vanilla undertones
- Character: Sophisticated, comforting and quietly luxurious
English Breakfast Tea Fragrance Oil is an elegant aromatic-citrus blend driven by bergamot terpenes, black tea nuances, and soft floral musks. The composition captures the freshness of steaming tea infused with citrus peel, while delicate jasmine facets soften the sharper aromatic edges and add refinement to the heart. Creamy vanilla undertones round the drydown without overpowering the airy tea structure. The result is a sophisticated tea fragrance with excellent freshness, smooth diffusion, and a distinctly refined “afternoon ritual” character.

Discoloration Potential: Light
Despite some oxidation-prone aromatics being present in English Breakfast Tea Fragrance Oil, its stable base (benzyl benzoate, alcohols) and low concentrations of reactive materials keep discoloration slow and minor.
- Gradual yellowing over time is possible, especially under light or heat, though it’s unlikely to turn dark quickly.
- Suitable for pale-toned products (like beige waxes, tan soaps, or neutral-colored diffusers) where slight deepening won’t disrupt aesthetics.
- Store in cool, dark, tightly sealed containers to maintain clarity and visual freshness.
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.

a great scent that can be used both alone and can be mixed perfectly with other fragrances to create a great solid base. It gives a soft solid tea scent, with a bit luxury notes

Really nice scent of black tea. Rich and creamy but fresh at the same time. Smells nice if you use it alone but also mix great with other scents if you want to achieve a deeper, richer scent. Do not accelerate cold process soap.
