Bay Rum Oil
Used in 6 formulas
About this material
Bay Rum Oil opens with a warm, spicy aroma that combines sweet and herbal notes, reminiscent of clove and cinnamon, layered over a fresh, slightly citrusy backdrop. As it develops, the scent reveals a deeper, resinous quality that adds complexity and richness, evoking the essence of tropical spices. In a formula, it acts as a bridge between fresh and warm notes, enhancing the overall depth without overwhelming other components. It pairs well with citrus oils to amplify freshness, and with woody or balsamic notes to create a rounded, comforting base. Typically used at a dose of 0.070% to 0.32%, it works best around 0.190%.
