How to Use — Recommended Use Level
| Typical use level | No single published figure applies to every grade of this material. As a working rule, start water-phase actives at 0.5–2%, oil-phase actives at 1–5%, standardised or potent isolates at 0.05–0.5%, and supplier-diluted solutions at the percentage the technical data sheet specifies. Always confirm the exact level against the supplier TDS, your stability and compatibility testing, and the safety assessment for your finished product. |
|---|---|
| Recommended pH | formulation-dependent |
| Addition phase | As per the supplier technical data sheet |
| Solubility | Water-soluble. Disperse into the water phase with stirring; avoid prolonged high heat where the material is heat-sensitive. |
No single published use level applies to every grade of this material, so the figure above is a general starting rule rather than a specification.
General rule: always begin at the lower end of the range, confirm the level against the supplier technical data sheet, and validate stability, pH, colour, odour and preservative efficacy on the finished formulation before scaling up.

Technical Notes
Rajnigandha — a distinctly Indian floral with high value.
Regulatory Note
Supplier diligence required: Fragrance allergen, phototoxicity, sensitization and use-level review essential.
Sold as a cosmetic raw material for professional formulation. A published INCI name does not by itself authorise use: the buyer is responsible for confirming permitted status, maximum concentration, restrictions by product type, labelling and claim rules in every market the finished product is sold in. In India, cosmetics fall under the Drugs and Cosmetics Act 1940 and the Cosmetics Rules 2020 administered by CDSCO, with BIS standards (including IS 4707 Part 2) listing restricted substances. The EU applies Regulation (EC) No 1223/2009 and its Annexes; the United States applies the FD&C Act as amended by MoCRA; Korea, Japan and China operate their own positive lists and functional-cosmetic frameworks. Every finished product needs its own safety assessment.

How to work with it
The specification's Add at row is the one to read first. Water-phase materials added to a hot oil phase are the most common reason a batch separates.
Measure the finished product, not the premix. Outside the range the activity drops away and, for some materials, the degradation route is what causes complaints.
Then work up through stability and compatibility testing. Higher is not better, and the destination market's limit may sit below your formulation ceiling.
