This fragrance evokes images of sunlight on golden fields, gentle breezes, and timeless elegance.
It blends beautifully into balms and perfumes, imparting a subtle, long-lasting aroma that comforts and soothes the senses.
Unlike volatile essential oils, the wax diffuses its scent slowly and steadily, giving formulations a naturally balanced fragrance profile.
Chemistry
Composition highlights:
- Natural plant waxes and esters
- Aromatic compounds: benzaldehyde, anethole, farnesol, methyl anthranilate (traces)
- Lipophilic pigments and antioxidants (carotenoids)
Together, these components create a wax that is both beautifully fragrant and highly functional.
Extraction and Composition
Mimosa Floral Wax is produced as a by-product of absolute extraction — after the concrete is washed with alcohol to separate the aromatic components, a portion of solid natural waxes remains.
These waxes retain traces of the aromatic esters, aldehydes, and terpenes characteristic of mimosa absolute, as well as nourishing plant lipids and fatty acids such as palmitic and stearic acids.
The result is a creamy, semi-solid material that melts easily into formulations, enriching them with natural emollience and fragrance.
Applications
- Solid perfumes and compatible aromatic wax or oil bases
- Balms and anhydrous cosmetic preparations where a waxy texture is desired
- Incorporate gradually using controlled heat appropriate to the formula
Safety
Safety and Handling:
- Use only in an appropriately assessed finished formulation; patch test before topical use.
- For external use only.
- Store in a cool, dark place.
- Melt gently using a double boiler (avoid direct flame).
- Shelf life: 2–3 years.
