DEP vs. Triethylcitraat: Waarom we overstappen – en wat het betekent voor jouw parfumdupes

A New Chapter Begins – For Our Formulas and Your Fragrance Experience

Since December 2024, ÉCLAT has been taking a big step into the future: In every new production, we are replacing Diethyl Phthalate (DEP) with the more modern and skin-friendly Triethyl Citrate.

Why this change? What does it mean for longevity, skin compatibility, and fragrance quality? Sit back, grab your favorite scent – we’ll explain it to you.

Triethyl Citrate: The Smart Solution for Modern Formulas

With Triethyl Citrate, we are using a high-quality solvent that is not only approved in perfumes but also in natural cosmetics. Why will you love it?

• Certified Natural Cosmetics Standard – Triethyl Citrate meets the strict requirements of certified natural cosmetics – a clear sign of purity and quality.

• Gentle & Skin-Friendly – It preserves the lightness of the fragrance and ensures a pleasant skin feel – ideal for sensitive skin or delicate life stages such as pregnancy.

• Phthalate-Free – For everyone who values modern, conscious ingredients: 100% phthalate-free, with no compromises.

• Optimized Fragrance Development – Thanks to a balanced evaporation curve, fragrance notes unfold harmoniously and elegantly.

• Future-Proof & Sustainable – With Triethyl Citrate, we rely on contemporary fragrance technology that meets the highest quality standards – today and tomorrow.

Are There Any Challenges?

Of course, every transition involves fine-tuning:

• Longevity Optimization – Since Triethyl Citrate evaporates differently than DEP, our perfumers have adjusted the formulas – ensuring your favorite fragrance lasts just as long as before.

• Higher Production Costs – More quality also means more effort. But we believe: your skin and well-being are worth it.

Our goal remains: premium quality at fair prices.

What Does This Mean for You?

With every new ÉCLAT fragrance, you will now receive:

• A skin-friendlier formula that also meets natural cosmetics standards

• The same fragrance quality – without compromise

• A modern composition that stands for safety, clarity, and compatibility

And soon, you’ll be able to see at a glance which fragrances have already been reformulated – because we’ll be labeling them for you.

Our Conclusion: You Will Smell – and Feel – the Difference

This transition is more than just an ingredient swap. It’s a step towards innovation, purity, and responsibility – for you and for everyone who loves perfume.

Look forward to fragrances that not only smell amazing but also respect your skin and your values.
