MELLIS 1933 :: BASE COMPOUND
A fresh take on the classic spicy-balsamic core that built the greatest perfumes of the 20th century. Built around Eugenol, Benzyl Salicylate, and Patchouli, sitting on a warm and creamy coumarin base. Velvety, spicy, incandescent.
Back in the early 1900s, the original Dianthene bases created a smoldering foundation for what would become the "Mellis" family. By the 1930s, this accord was the secret behind the massive, simmering heat of the era's most glamorous scents.
MELLIS 1933 brings that heavy historical weight right into your lab today. We cleaned up the muddy vintage materials to give you a radiant, sun-warmed skin effect with striking modern clarity. It breathes incredible life into heavy ouds and makes sharp spices absolutely sing, giving them a rich, luxurious trail.
Character: spicy-balsamic, floral-amber, radiant.
USE
For building massive floral-oriental foundations and dropping that authentic mid-century texture into your formulas. It works beautifully to stretch out volatile spice tops and acts as a brilliant modifier to lift those dense, heavy oud materials right out of the dark.
PAIRINGS
Oud bases, Aldehyde C-12 MNA, Cedarwood, Marine Accords, Metallic accords, Juniper Berry, Oakmoss, Black Pepper, Benzoin, Peru Balsam.
FORMAT
10ml concentrated base.
Manufacturer: Based Intl.
HANDLING
Use at 2% to 10% to drop a spicy, carnation-like hum into your heaviest ouds. Push it to 15% to 30% to get that unmistakable, room-filling volume of a classic oriental. It acts as a perfect bridge linking your sharp top notes to your deep, resinous bases. Fully miscible with ethanol and standard carriers. Stable across the board from luxury oils to high-concentration Extrait de Parfum.
