Raspberry Ketone

Product Description

Green Stone Swiss manufactures high-purity Raspberry Ketone under GMP-aligned quality systems for consistent assay, odor profile, and reliable bulk availability. Our direct factory supply model supports fragrance, skincare, and personal care brands with full technical documentation, COA/TDS packages, and free sample evaluation for scent development.

Raspberry Ketone (4-(4-hydroxyphenyl)butan-2-one) is the key aroma impact molecule associated with raspberry character and is listed in CosIng for fragrance, perfuming, and skin conditioning functions. In cosmetics it is used primarily as a fruity scent and odor-masking ingredient, with secondary skin-conditioning relevance in finished formulas—not as a metabolic slimming or whitening hero active.

As fruity-gourmand and berry-floral signatures remain strong in body care, hair care, and scented skincare, high-purity Raspberry Ketone offers formulators a clear INCI, stable factory-direct supply, and practical processability for professional fragrance and personal care development.

Formulation Guidelines

Predissolve Raspberry Ketone before incorporation and validate odor stability, solubility, and sensory balance in the finished system.

• Suggested Use Level: Typical 0.05–0.5% in final formulation, adjusted to fragrance strength targets
• Solubilization: Predissolve in ethanol, propylene glycol, or dipropylene glycol before adding to the formula
• Addition: Add during cool-down preferably below 40°C to protect odor profile
• Compatibility: Compatible with many fragrance solvents and emulsion systems; verify crystallization risk in high-water, low-solvent bases
• Stability: Protect from prolonged heat and light; recheck odor after accelerated stability testing
• Combine with Benzyl Alcohol for improved solubilization support in fragrance and personal care systems.
