    Hi I’m new in perfume formulation

    The salesman from raw material supplier in my company said that to make body mist with strong fragrance and strong alcohol odor, I should use 50% alcohol in my formulation, 2-3% of perfume, and 5-10% of propylene glycol

    what do you guys think? do you have any advice or better formulation?

    thank you

    The level of alcohol is good however the level of perfume and mpg can be reduced.

    did you try to using PEG-40 Castor oil to mix alkohol and water instead of PG to reduce cost, so you could increase the amount of parfume up to 10 %? use PEG-40 just 2%.

    You may need to level that off at 2.00% fragrance. There are regulatory considerations here in the USA; not sure what nation you are distributing. Besides, for most fragrance oils in a body mist that will be plenty. You may not need more than 5.00% propylene glycol either, although butylene glycol is the better fixative.
