Minimalist Perfumery: Molecular Transparency and the Art of Reduction
Minimalist perfumery achieves presence through radical reduction, utilizing 5-30 ingredients centered on transparent molecules like Iso E Super, Ambroxan, and Hedione at unprecedented concentrations (20-75%). This technical guide explores the chemistry, formulation strategies, and IFRA compliance considerations for creating minimalist fragrances that prioritize linearity, sheerness, and skin-chemistry interaction.
