West Lake Tea Fragrance Oil

West Lake Tea Fragrance Oil (Nature Inspired) captures the serene, misty mornings over Hangzhou's historic West Lake, specifically celebrating the legendary Longjing (Dragon Well) green tea profile. It opens with an ultra-crisp, clarifying burst of authentic pan-fired green tea leaves, zesty bergamot, and a refreshing touch of dew-kissed morning grass. The heart reveals the signature, sophisticated complexity that defines true West Lake tea—a dry, subtly nutty accord of toasted chestnuts layered over soft orchid petals and green violet leaves. The dry-down is whisper-soft, grounding the airy, botanical composition with a clean, skin-hugging base of white musk and pale cedarwood.

Fragrance Profile & Note Breakdown

Formulation & Technical Guide

This pure, nature-identical profile delivers an incredibly elegant, minimalist aesthetic. It is an exceptional performer for upscale spa lines, meditative candle collections, and clean, gender-neutral personal care products.

• Vanillin Content: 0.0% (None). Because it relies completely on green aromatics, dry nutty accords, and clean wood/musk molecules rather than sweet resins, this oil is exceptionally stable. It will not cause browning or discoloration in un-stabilized white cold-process soaps, whipped body butters, or cosmetic cream bases.

• Flashpoint: Medium-High (approx. 84°C). The delicate green tea and volatile grass top notes are highly temperature-sensitive. To prevent these crucial, uplifting, and airy elements from prematurely flashing off or burning during manufacturing, ensure you pour and stir this oil into candle wax or warm cosmetic bases at lower temperatures, ideally between 63°C and 67°C.
