About this material
Alpha Bisabolol opens with a soft, slightly sweet, and herbal scent reminiscent of chamomile, with a gentle, almost creamy texture. As it develops, it reveals a subtle warmth and a hint of floral character, making it feel soothing and calming. This material is particularly effective in adding a smooth, skin-like quality to formulations, enhancing the overall softness and comfort of the fragrance. It pairs well with citrus notes to soften their sharpness, as well as with florals to amplify their natural sweetness. The typical usage in formulas ranges from 0.140% to 2.12%, with a common dose around 0.210%.
