We all know Indonesian Patchouli is the best in the world. But for a perfumer creating a pristine, clear liquid fragrance (like a CK One type), standard Patchouli is a nightmare. It is dark, reddish-brown, and stains fabrics.
The solution is Patchouli Light (Iron-Free). Triefta Aroma Nusantara utilizes advanced stainless-steel distillation and molecular fractionation to remove the iron ions and heavy colors, creating a transparent oil that retains the soul of Patchouli without the "mud."
The "Iron" Problem Traditional Patchouli is distilled in iron drums. The oil reacts with the metal, turning it dark red.
- The Stain Risk: In white lotions or clear perfumes, this color is unacceptable.
- The Scent Difference: Traditional oil has a "ferrous" or metallic metallic top note. Triefta’s Patchouli Light removes this off-note. What remains is a cleaner, woodier, and more "modern" profile—pure Patchoulol without the dirty background.
Molecular Distillation (MD) For the ultra-premium segment, we offer Patchouli MD.
- The Process: We strip away the harsh terpenic top notes, leaving only the heart.
- The Result: An oil that smells incredibly smooth, almost like chocolate and damp earth. It is a "Base Note" that doesn't smell like a hippie shop; it smells like high-end French luxury.
Conclusion If you are formulating for the modern, minimalist consumer, you cannot use dirty oil. Upgrade to the clarity and sophistication of Triefta’s Patchouli Light. It is the invisible strength behind your clear formulation.
