Fragrance Fixative - According IFRA (International Fragrance Association) restrictions, you can use up to 26.7% for fragrance formulations. However, we recommend usage up to 10% to avoid altering your fragrance end-product formulation
Taking into account the density of the essential oil and the strength of the aroma, because if the oil is heavy, the percentage is reasonable as a maximum, but if the oil is light, the best is less than 10% because it is likely that the smell of the fixer will prevail.
