Red Berry Fragrance Oil

Red Berry fragrance oil (cosmetic grade) is a sweet, fruity blend fragrance inspired by red berries such as strawberries, cherries, raspberries, and cranberries. It’s synthetic or partly blended with natural isolates, designed to be skin-safe, long-lasting, and stable in cosmetic formulations.

What is Red Berry Fragrance Oil

• Usually contains a mix of fruity top notes (berries) and sometimes sweet/musky undertones for balance.
• Used mainly for aroma, not skincare benefits.

Properties

• Aroma: Bright, sweet, fruity – a mix of strawberry, raspberry, cherry, and cranberry notes.
• Appearance: Clear to light yellow liquid.
• Stability: More resistant to oxidation than natural fruit extracts.
• Solubility: Oil-soluble (use Polysorbate 80 or other solubilizers in water-based products).
