Purple Iris Fragrance Oil
Purple Iris Fragrance Oil is an elegant, musky floral blend that captivates with its powdery richness and refined depth. Zesty lemon and mandarin sparkle at the top before melting into a lush and sensuous heart of iris, violet, and jasmine. The base lingers in a cocoon of warm cashmere, sweet tonka, and soft musk, evoking the luxurious scent of a silk scarf steeped in fine perfume. A sophisticated choice for truly opulent scented creations.

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.

Technical Data (IFRA & CLP)

Discoloration Potential: Light
Purple Iris Fragrance Oil contains several floral aldehydes, terpene derivatives, and natural oils that may gradually yellow or warm in tone, especially in soap or exposed wax.
- Expect gradual yellowing, particularly in soaps, white wax, or clear personal care products over time.
- Works well in pastel or creamy floral-themed products where slight tone deepening won’t clash with design.
- Less ideal for ultra-clear or snow-white products unless discoloration is stabilized.
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%
These ranges reflect typical formulation practices and are provided for general guidance only. They do not represent maximum permitted levels.

Ah, Iris! It’s like a box of chocolates … you never know what you are going to get! Sometimes it’s an overwhelming powder bomb, sometimes more like a stand-up men’s cologne, sometimes sweet, sometimes chilly, or carroty or more floral … it can be clean or musty, screechy, or a dreamy, gorgeous vintage scent. I’m always ready to be surprised! This strikes more of a “lavender”-type accord for me. It doesn’t smell like lavender, but it is a more masculine-leaning, sharpish scent which isn’t what I was really hoping for (for perfume blend for me), but I’m thinking of mixing with Guaic Forest, some musk, and maybe … bergamot and a little rose? for my husband. Or maybe amp up the violet and jasmine, and add some vanilla for me. Not sure yet, but it will be interesting to experiment with!
