Bulk fragrance alcohol dilution
INTERESSENS carries out the alcohol dilution of your fragrances on a contract basis: dilution of the concentrate in cosmetic ethyl alcohol, maceration, maturation, cold filtration, then delivery of the finished juice in bulk — jerrycans, drums or IBCs — rather than in bottles. A pure contract-manufacturing service, operated under ISO 22716 in our Montauroux workshop, thirty minutes from Grasse, with full batch traceability and export documentation ready to ship.
Three operations that decide the clarity, the hold and the olfactory fidelity of an eau de parfum. We carry them out for you, and hand back the juice ready to fill.
i.
Alcohol dilution
Gravimetric weighing of the concentrate and of denatured cosmetic ethyl alcohol, perfumery grade. Every register is covered — eau de Cologne, eau de toilette, eau de parfum, extrait — at the dosage and alcohol strength of your formula. Controlled addition of any additives: demineralised water, UV filter, colourant, chelating agent.

ii.
Maceration & maturation
Rest in stainless-steel tanks or inert containers, away from light and at controlled temperature, until the accord binds and the structure stabilises. Duration set with you according to the nature of the concentrate and the dosage level. Olfactory control at the start and end of maceration.

iii.
Filtration & clarification
Chilling then cartridge filtration to remove insolubles and waxes. The goal: a perfectly clear juice that stays clear on the shelf and does not haze in the cold. Visual control on column, density and alcohol strength recorded, certificate of analysis attached to the batch.

B · Method & milestones
From concentrate to sealed drum
Six documented milestones. At every moment, you know where your batch stands and what has been recorded.
I.
Technical brief & NDA
Formula or specifications, target dosage, alcohol strength, destination market, volume. Systematic NDA before any technical exchange. Feasibility analysis and regulatory scoping.
II.
Inbound & material control
Receipt of the concentrate — yours or the one we source — and of the alcohol. Documentary checks: allergen certificate, safety data sheet, IFRA certificate, certificate of analysis. Inbound organoleptic control, quarantine and release.
III.
Weighing & dilution
Gravimetric weighing in tank following the order of incorporation set by the formula. Homogenisation, density and alcohol-strength readings. Every operation is logged in the batch file.
IV.
Maceration & maturation
Rest away from light, duration fixed at scoping. End-of-maceration olfactory control and validation — yours if you wish, on a macerate sample sent before filtration.
V.
Filtration & final control
Chilling, filtration, clarity, density and strength control. A retention sample is drawn and kept with us. The batch certificate of analysis is issued.
VI.
Bulk packaging & shipment
Filling into approved jerrycans, drums or IBCs, sealing, batch labelling and transport labelling. Packing list, SDS, ADR, IMDG or DGD declaration according to the transport mode. Collection or shipment organised.
C · Bulk delivery
Four ways to leave
The container is chosen with the volume, the transport mode and what you will do with the juice next. Every container leaves sealed, labelled with the batch number and accompanied by its transport documentation.
Pl. I
HDPE jerrycan
UN-approved, tamper-evident cap. The format for pilot batches, validation shipments and small runs bound for manual filling.
Pl. II
Metal or plastic drum
UN-approved, strapped on a pallet. The reference format for sea export and planned packaging campaigns.
Pl. III
IBC in a pallet crate
For large volumes bound for an automatic filling line. Tap draining, standard pallet, stackable.
Pl. IV
Without leaving the workshop
The juice stays with us and goes straight onto the filling line. No intermediate transport, no break in traceability, no risk of transfer loss.
D · Volumes & cadence
From pilot batch to campaign
i.
Pilot / Validation
A first small macerate to validate the accord, the dosage and the hold before launching production. It is almost always the right first step.
First step
ii.
Series / Running production
The production volume is scoped with you at quotation, according to the dosage, the number of references and the packaging schedule.
Scoped at quotation
iii.
Campaign / Scheduling
Several references put into alcohol over a single window, with maceration and filtration scheduled to hold your go-to-market date.
An alcoholic fragrance in a drum is a Class 3 dangerous good. Without the right documents, it enters no truck, no container and no aircraft. We produce the whole file with the batch.
i.
Regulatory file
Quali-quantitative formula compliant with Regulation (EU) 2023/1545 with the extended allergen list, labelling INCI list, volatile-organic-compound content statement, CLP classification and labelling.
ii.
Transport file
Multilingual safety data sheet, packing list, ADR declaration for road, IMDG multimodal declaration for sea, IATA DGD for air. Container marking and labelling compliant with the chosen mode.
iii.
Batch traceability
Unique batch number, complete batch file, certificate of analysis, retention sample kept. Recall possible at any time across the whole chain, from inbound concentrate to shipped container.
CPNP notification and the Responsible Person function under Article 4 of Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 remain with your company or its EU representative — we supply everything you need to discharge them.
Going further
Alcohol dilution is only one link. If the juice must then be bottled, crimped and labelled, our perfume filling page details the full chain. If you start from an idea rather than a formula — sourcing the fragrance, the bottle, olfactory validation, regulatory support through to market — that is the turn-key project. And to understand the overall economics of a launch, our private label guide covers MOQs, timeline and regulatory obligations, in Europe and for export.
F · Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before ordering
It is the preparation of the finished juice — dilution of the fragrance concentrate in cosmetic ethyl alcohol, maceration, maturation and filtration — supplied in bulk rather than bottled. You receive a stabilised, tested and documented juice, ready to be filled where and when you decide.
Both work. You supply your concentrate and its documentation — allergen certificate, safety data sheet, IFRA certificate — and we handle the alcohol dilution. Or we source the fragrance from our partner composition houses and support you through olfactory validation.
Every register is covered, from eau de Cologne to extrait. The alcohol strength and dosage are set by your formula, or agreed together during technical scoping, with any adjustments the destination market may require — notably on alcohol denaturing and applicable IFRA limits.
HDPE jerrycans, drums or IBCs in pallet crates, depending on volume and transport mode. Every container is UN-approved for Class 3 flammable liquids, sealed, labelled with the batch number and accompanied by its transport documentation.
Safety data sheet, quali-quantitative formula compliant with Regulation (EU) 2023/1545, labelling INCI list, VOC statement, CLP classification and labelling, batch certificate of analysis, packing list and transport declaration — ADR for road, IMDG for sea, IATA DGD for air.
Yes, and it is the most frequent case. The juice stays in our workshop and goes straight onto the filling line — filling, crimping, labelling, cartoning — with no intermediate transport and no break in traceability.
