Peach Base
Premium Base Ingredient for Perfumery
Peach Base is a synthetic fragrance base designed to reproduce the rich, creamy scent of ripe peach. Built around powerful lactonic molecules, it delivers a realistic peach profile with a juicy-fleshed opening and soft, milky undertones. This base is commonly used to add volume, texture, and fruit-forward character to floral, gourmand, and personal care compositions. Due to its potent odor profile, it plays a central role in formulating full-bodied fruit impressions.

What is Peach Base?
Peach Base is a complex synthetic fragrance compound developed to simulate the nuanced scent of ripe peaches. Unlike single-molecule ingredients, this base consists of multiple aroma chemicals that together reproduce the fruity-fleshy body, the creamy-lactonic core, and the faint fuzziness of peach skin. The typical structure includes lactones such as γ-undecalactone and δ-decalactone, as well as supporting esters and aldehydes that contribute brightness and green-fruity lift.
Fragrance bases such as this are often preferred over natural extracts, which are typically unstable, oxidatively reactive, or economically unfeasible. This base provides a consistent and highly diffusive peach character in both fine fragrance and personal care formats.
Olfactory Profile and Perfumery Applications
Peach Base offers a juicy and textured fruit note with distinct lactonic depth. It is highly versatile and works well in:
Fruity-floral compositions, especially alongside jasmine, magnolia, and rose
Gourmand structures, where it complements coconut, milk, vanilla, and apricot elements
Body care and functional perfumery, such as creams, lotions, shampoos, and fabric conditioners
Depending on the supporting ingredients, Peach Base can lean toward either fresh peach flesh or milky dessert-like peach, offering flexibility across olfactory directions. When used in high proportions, it may reveal minor fatty, sulfuric, or waxy undertones typical of concentrated lactones, which can be managed through careful formulation and material pairing.
Additional Information
Compatibility:
Peach Base is oil-soluble and blends well with both synthetic and natural raw materials. Its olfactory behavior may vary slightly depending on pH, heat exposure, and solubilization medium (e.g., alcohol vs. silicone base).
Common Synergies:
Pairs effectively with heliotropin, musk ketone, methyl cinnamate, ionones, and green tea notes for complex fruity, floral, or dessert-inspired accords.
