Neutral, versatile, and quietly indispensable, Di Propylene Glycol (DPG) is a widely used carrier and solvent in perfumery and aromatic formulation. Odourless and stable, it allows fragrance materials to dissolve, disperse, and perform consistently across a wide range of applications.

DPG is virtually odourless, with only a faintly sweet, neutral character that does not interfere with fragrance compositions. Its role is functional rather than aromatic, providing smooth dilution, improved stability, and controlled release of scent. It is especially valued where clarity, consistency, and ease of handling are required.

DPG is primarily used as a diluent, carrier, and solvent.

Recommended usage:
Diluting fragrance materials, aroma chemicals, resins, and accords
Carrier for oils in roll-ons, room sprays, and reed diffusers
Commonly used to pre-dilute strong or viscous materials for easier weighing and blending

Suitable for non-perfumery applications including candles, reed diffusers, room sprays, and some bath & body products (depending on formulation requirements)

DPG slows evaporation, improves solubility, and supports even fragrance diffusion.

The first rule of perfumery: never work neat.

Every professional perfumer works in dilution. It's not a beginner shortcut, it's the correct way to evaluate and blend aromatic materials. At full concentration, materials smell harsh, inaccurate, and often overwhelming. You're not smelling the material, you're smelling too much of it.

When you dilute a 5ml aromatic material to a 10% solution, you extend it to 50ml of working stock. That's five times the material to experiment with, evaluate, and blend, without wasting a drop of something precious and expensive.

For powder materials like ambroxan, calone, and vanillin, dilution isn't optional, it's essential. Powders need to be fully dissolved in ethanol before they can be accurately measured, evaluated, or incorporated into a formula. Without this step, you simply can't work with them properly.
