Solvent for Fragrance Enhancement

I’m sure you know the feeling when you walk into a room that smells incredible, only to have that smell vanish within a few minutes. The soul-crushing disappointment of losing such a delightful olfactory sensation.

Now picture your air care formulation releasing a luxurious scent that lingers in a room longer after application – without any sharp solvent odor masking your carefully crafted aroma profile. And the fragrance doesn’t just last longer, it now has the chance to evoke an emotional response in those lucky enough to encounter it.

Your formulation has the power to awaken core memories, eliciting a deeper connection to your products. Our olfactory senses are uniquely wired to emotion and memory, making fragrance one of the most powerful ways to connect to consumers on a deeply personal level. What better way to nurture that connection than by incorporating Augeo® Clean Multi into your air care formulations to enhance scent strength and longevity? Plus, you can achieve this with a planet-forward approach.

Why Formulators are Choosing Augeo® Clean Multi

Augeo® Clean Multi is a next-generation solvent designed to meet the needs of modern fragrance delivery systems, including candles, reed diffusers, electrical diffusers, and plug-in air fresheners. As regulatory pressures tighten and consumer sentiment continues to shift toward more eco-conscious lifestyles, formulators face the trifecta of maintaining performance while shifting towards greener technology and preserving a specific price point. Augeo® Clean Multi is a biobased, low odor, highly compatible multi-functional and VOC-compliant solvent that does not compromise on solubility or evaporation behavior.

Technical Benefits for Air Care Formulations

  1. Optimized Fragrance Delivery: Augeo® Clean Multi is engineered to improve fragrance perception over time. Its moderate evaporation rate allows for controlled diffusion, making it ideal for reed diffusers, room sprays, and plug-in devices. The result? A longer-lasting, more balanced scent release—without the flash-off associated with traditional solvents like DPG or glycol ethers.
  2. High Fragrance Solubilization Capacity: Thanks to its excellent solvency power, Augeo® Clean Multi supports higher fragrance loading and maintains clarity and stability across a broad range of oils. This makes it especially beneficial in complex or natural oil-based formulations where solubility is often a challenge.

  1. Near-Zero Odor Profile: Unlike many traditional carriers, Augeo® Clean Multi has an extremely low odor, ensuring that nothing competes with your fragrance's top, middle, or base notes. This allows you to fine-tune your aromatic profile with precision.
  2. Regulatory and Environmental Compliance: With a renewable carbon content of about 70% and classification as an LVP-VOC, Augeo® Clean Multi complies with U.S. and EU air quality regulations—including CARB. It’s also non-toxic, non-flammable, and readily biodegradable, making it easier to justify in safer, greener product claims.

Backed by Science, Chosen by Experts

Augeo® Clean Multi is supported by extensive testing on evaporation curves, solubility parameters, and environmental impact assessments. According to Solvay and independent evaluations:

  • Fragrance performance in reed diffusers lasts up to 30% longer than with DPM or DPG-based systems.
  • The solvent is compatible with over 95% of essential oils and synthetic fragrance bases.
  • It reduces overall formulation VOC content while maintaining clarity and stability.

Fragrance enhancement is no longer just about making a space smell good—it’s about creating lasting, refined, and safe sensory experiences. Augeo® Clean Multi offers a smart, sustainable path forward, empowering formulators to innovate with confidence in an increasingly competitive and regulated market.
