Body-care brands add amyris to lotions and body oils for a soft, lasting scent that pairs well with floral notes without overwhelming them. This page is part of our Guide to Buying Amyris Essential Oil in Bulk.
Sample at 16 oz before scaling to a production batch.
A working example of amyris paired with a floral note in a leave-on body oil is laid out in DIY Rose and Amyris Body Oil, and the cosmetic use case more broadly, including lotion and body oil ratios, is covered in Amyris Oil for Skin.
As with any leave-on skin product, dilution and patch testing are formulation basics rather than optional steps, covered in Amyris Oil Safety Basics, and worth building into a standard operating procedure before scaling a formula to production.
Amyris tends to work as a supporting base note in body oil and lotion formulas rather than the lead scent, holding a floral or citrus top note through the day on skin.
The formulation takeaway: treat amyris as a fixative within a body oil or lotion formula, and confirm dilution and patch test results before locking a production batch.
Formula development typically runs on 16 oz; production batches move to 5 lbs, 25 lbs, or 400 lbs.
Reach out for pound and drum pricing on lotion or body oil lines.
