Thyme and Honey Fragrance Oil
Thyme and Honey Fragrance Oil is a harmonious blend of aromatic herbs and golden sweetness, evoking sunlit Mediterranean landscapes. Fresh thyme and green tea create a crisp, herbal opening with a subtle citrus lift, leading into a soft floral heart of rose, jasmine, and ylang ylang. The base settles into warm honey, smooth cedarwood, and gentle musk, giving the scent a comforting and natural finish. Balanced, elegant, and inviting, it is ideal for candles, wax melts, and cozy home fragrances.

Discoloration Potential: Heavy
Thyme and Honey Fragrance Oil contains key discoloration-driving components such as Coumarin, piperonal, and phenylacetaldehyde, all known for ambering and browning over time. The presence of thyme essential oil (rich in phenolic compounds) further increases oxidation and darkening potential. The SDS also describes the product as pale yellow to yellow, indicating an already warm-toned base prone to deepening
- Discoloration toward amber or brown is highly likely over time.
- Strong fit for honeyed, herbal, gourmand, or rustic concepts where darkening enhances the aesthetic.
- Not suitable for white, pastel, or transparent bases where color stability is important.
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.

- 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.
