Myrrh and Tonka Fragrance Oil is a base-driven balsamic composition built around a modern diffusive backbone that enhances smoothness and cohesion. The myrrh accord is supported by resinous and balsamic materials, creating a warm and enveloping structure, while vanillic and heliotropin facets introduce a soft, creamy sweetness. Floral elements provide a gentle transition into the base, ensuring balance and continuity. The result is a refined, comforting fragrance with a silky texture and a persistent, well-rounded drydown.

- Ideal for oriental, resinous, or balsamic concepts where warmth and darkness complement the character.
- Not suitable for pastel-colored or white products that require color stability.
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.
