I would like to add a natural orange scent to my serum. Which natural scent extract should I use to achieve an orange fragrance?

Answer

Natural Orange Scent for Serum

To add a natural orange scent to your serum, you can consider using Citrus Aurantium Amara (Bitter Orange) Flower Extract. This is a natural scent extract designed for cosmetic formulas.

  • Properties: It is a light-colored liquid with a natural fragrance. It is water-soluble and can be mixed into the water phase of your serum formulation.
  • Usage Rate: The recommended usage rate is typically between 0.5% and 5%.

There is also Dried Orange Peels (for oil-based) available, which is suitable for use in oil-based cosmetic products, potentially for creating oil infusions with an orange note.
