Over the course of July, we published a full month of content covering the essential oils, carrier oils, solvents, and emulsifiers that make up the EZ Elements fragrance ingredient range. This wrap up guide pulls everything into one place, organized by the categories formulators actually shop by, so Canadian fragrance houses, cosmetic brands, and home fragrance manufacturers have a single reference to work from.
Whether you’re sourcing your first bulk essential oil order or rounding out an established formulation with a new solvent or emulsifier, the sections below cover the full range, with links straight through to the product or ingredient page for each.
Where to Start
If you’re new to sourcing fragrance ingredients from EZ Elements, these three categories cover the most common starting points:
- New to fragrance formulation: Start with the Essential Oils collection to explore top, middle, and base note options across citrus, floral, herbal, and woody families.
- Building a water-based spray, mist, or cosmetic emulsion: Start with Poly Suga Mulse D9 or the Polysorbate family to solubilize your fragrance or essential oil into a stable, clear base.
- Diluting essential oils for massage, body, or skin care use: Start with the Carrier Oils collection for a naturally derived base oil.
Fragrance Solvents & Alcohols
Solvents and alcohols carry, dilute, and extend fragrance oils across alcohol-based perfumes, reed diffusers, and functional formulations.
- Perfumer’s Alcohol A high purity solvent base for alcohol-based perfumes and colognes.
- Isopropyl Alcohol (IPA) 99% A high concentration alcohol widely used in industrial cleaning, sanitation, and select formulation applications.
