cananga oil
CAS Number: 68606-83-7
The statistical data we collected from 7 public perfume formulas suggests that the mean dose for cananga oil is 0.50%. The typical lower limit is 0.30%, and the usual higher limit is 1.3%. The highest amount of cananga oil we encountered in any single formula is 5.0%, and the lowest was 0.0025%.
Please note that according to the IFRA Standard Category 4, the level of cananga oil should not exceed 0.73% of the final product. Assuming that you will be using your formula for an alcoholic perfume at a 10% dilution, this means you should only use cananga oil at 7.3% or less of the formula.
