Bourbon Vanilla Fragrance Oil
Warm • Creamy • Sweet • Gourmand
Purenso Select Bourbon Vanilla Fragrance Oil is a rich, warm and creamy vanilla fragrance with a smooth gourmand character and a deeper, more sophisticated finish than a simple sweet vanilla.
It combines the comforting sweetness of vanilla with warm, slightly woody and amber-like nuances, creating a luxurious fragrance suitable for perfumes, soaps, candles, body-care formulations and home-fragrance products.
Its versatile profile makes Bourbon Vanilla especially suitable for gourmand perfumes, warm body mists, luxury candles, creamy soaps, body lotions and cozy home-fragrance collections.
Whether used alone or blended with fruity, woody, floral or musky fragrances, Bourbon Vanilla adds warmth, sweetness and depth to a formulation.
What Does Bourbon Vanilla Fragrance Oil Smell Like?
