Vionil 10% DPG (Bedoukian®)
No stock or price required. Add a batch later only if you want inventory tracking.
Short profile
A forceful green profile led by cucumber peel and moist violet foliage. An orris-like floral undertone adds depth beneath the leafy impression, accompanied by a dry walnut-shell nuance. The overall texture combines watery freshness with a drier, nutty counterpoint. The supplier positions it for opening and heart effects, but does not describe a reliable stage-by-stage blotter evolution or a distinct dry-down odour.
Effect in a formula
Introduces a moist, leafy accent into the opening of a composition, with cucumber freshness extending its usefulness into green floral hearts. Small additions lend botanical realism to violet, muguet, rose and orris accords. In aquatic and melon–cucumber themes, it adds a sharper green definition rather than simply increasing floral volume.
Use and dosage
The main recommendation is 0.1–2% of the supplied 10% DPG dilution for green, floral or aquatic work, particularly opening and heart effects. The page does not explicitly identify this range as a concentrate percentage; trace additions are separately suggested for floral accents. This is formulation guidance, not an IFRA limit. A separate section gives 0.01–0.3% in finished perfume while describing a contradictory sulphurous identity, so that range should not be treated as confirmed Vionil guidance.
No confirmed manufacturer use level for this exact product.
Behaviour and performance
- Tenacity
- The descriptive text reports blotter detectability for as long as one week, without specifying the test dilution or loading. Elsewhere the page categorises persistence as medium and measured in hours, so its longevity information is internally inconsistent.
Diffusion, tenacity and note impact are not combined into a single performance score.
Dissolving and diluting
- Solvents
- Dipropylene glycol is the carrier in the commercial 10% solution. Ethanol and IPM are also listed as solvent options, with clear mixing reported in the laboratory section. That section contains a conflicting product description, so the additional compatibility claims warrant supplier confirmation.
- Working dilution
- The supplied working form contains 10% Vionil in dipropylene glycol. Additional dilution to 1%, with 0.1% for smelling, appears in the dilution instructions, and the linked calculator selects DPG. Those instructions accompany an inconsistent sulphurous description; confirm their applicability with the supplier before adopting them as a standard evaluation protocol.
- Appearance
- Listed as a solution containing 10% Vionil in DPG, ranging from colourless to a yellow tint.
