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.

- Diffusion: Strong initial citrus projection with a softer gourmand drydown

- Opening Impression: Sharp lemon zest and citronella brightness immediately wrapped in sweet pastry warmth
- Structure: Volatile citrus opening transitioning into roasted nut facets and a heavy vanillic gourmand base

Discoloration potential: Heavy
Rich in aldehydes, terpenes, and vanillin-type compounds, Lemon Meringue Pie Fragrance Oil has a strong tendency to darken over time. Multiple synergistic yellowing agents are present.
- Discoloration from pale yellow to amber or brown is expected, especially in soaps, wax, and clear bases.
- Ideal for citrus-dessert-themed products where yellow/golden hues are visually acceptable.
- Not suitable for white or pastel bases unless discoloration is intended or masked.
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 sealed, away from heat and light — but darkening is likely due to the formula’s natural instability.
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%
These ranges reflect typical formulation practices and are provided for general guidance only. They do not represent maximum permitted levels.
