  Fragrance Oil bases…

  Posted by David08848 on February 2, 2018 at 2:58 am

  Does anyone know what the current most used fragrance oil bases are?  Is Dipropylene glycol (DPG) still one of them?  Any others?  Thanks!

  So, I did manage to finally find some information.
  DPG - Dipropylene Glycol - not appropriate for soap or candles, though!
  IPP - Isopropyl Palmitate
  IPM - Isopropyl Myristate - seems like the most likely one to use!
  IPA - not sure about this one!

  IPM is the gold standard
