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.

Discoloration potential: Heavy
L’Imaginaire Perfume Oil contains multiple strong discoloration drivers including cinnamaldehyde, coumarin, olibanum resinoid, and Bulnesia sarmienti extract, along with essential oils such as lemon, ginger, and black pepper oil. These aldehydic, resinous, and spice-derived materials are highly prone to oxidation and polymerization, leading to significant ambering over time. The formula also includes fixatives like Cashmeran and woody components that further deepen the color.
- Discoloration toward amber or brown is very likely over time.
- Suitable for warm, spicy, woody, or oriental-themed products where darkening enhances the character.
- Not recommended for white, pastel, or transparent bases where visual clarity is critical.
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%

Application Perfume
The perfume oil is good, almost like original however it lacks a little of strength/longevity

Am achiziționat varianta de 100g de L’Imaginaire Perfume Oil și sunt absolut impresionat de complexitatea acestui ulei. Nu este un miros comercial banal, ci o adevărată experiență olfactivă de nișă, perfect echilibrată.
Deschiderea este extrem de vibrantă și curată datorită amestecului de citron și bergamotă, însă magia se întâmplă pe măsură ce parfumul evoluează. Notele de ghimbir și ceai negru, așezate pe o bază mistică de tămâie și lemn de guaiac, îi conferă un caracter unisex extrem de rafinat, luxos și profund.
Din punct de vedere tehnic, difuzia este excelentă (moderată spre puternică), iar persistența bazei pe mosc și ambroxan este remarcabilă. Trebuie avut în vedere că are un potențial mare de decolorare (heavy discoloration), devenind ambrat în timp din cauza rășinilor și condimentelor din compoziție, dar pentru lumânări sau parfumuri cu estetică caldă, lemnoasă, este pur și simplu perfect.
Raportul calitate-preț este imbatabil, iar ambalarea și livrarea din partea Perfumedom au fost, ca de obicei, ireproșabile. Recomand cu drag pentru orice proiect premium!
