Abstract: Methods of forming clear fragrances and formulations are described herein. The method includes providing a commercial fragrance formulation including a first concentration of a fragrance component and a second concentration of a nonessential component. The method further includes identifying the nonessential component, wherein the nonessential component includes an alcohol, an ester, a hydrocarbon, an aldehyde, a resin, other crystalline aroma chemicals, a first essential oil or combinations thereof, determining the second concentration and removing at least a portion of the nonessential component from the commercial fragrance formulation to form a first formulation, wherein the portion of the nonessential component is from about 5 wt. % to about 95 wt. % of the commercial fragrance formulation.
