Tested for Cold Process Soap

Cold process soap makers know the risk: a fragrance that rices the batter, discolors the bars, or fades before cure. Every fragrance oil in this collection is tested in cold process soap and rated for Acceleration, Discoloration, and Scent Retention before it is listed. For the safest choice for a large batch, shop our No Acceleration, No Discoloration Fragrance Oils.

Fragrance Oil FAQ

Fragrance performs differently depending on what you're making it for, since a scent that shines in candles can behave completely differently in cold process soap. Below you'll find guidance on choosing the right oil for your project, understanding usage rates and IFRA limits, storing your oils properly, and what our most common customer questions actually mean. When in doubt, always check the individual product page for application-specific ratings before you commit to a full batch.

Choosing the Right Fragrance Oil

Not every fragrance oil performs the same way in every project. Check each product's Fragrance Use filter, or the Shop by Use links above, to find oils rated for your specific application.

Looking for pairing ideas instead of a single scent? 101 Fragrance Blends on our blog rounds up customer-favorite combinations to get you started.

New to fragrance oil in general? Our Fragrance Oil FAQ covers the basics: what it's made of, how it compares to essential and perfume oil, and how much to use.

Can I Blend Fragrance Oils Together?

Absolutely! Combining two or more fragrance oils is one of the easiest ways to create a scent that's uniquely yours. Start with a small test batch, layer oils at different ratios (try 1:1, then adjust to taste), and jot down what you used so you can repeat a winning combo.

Not sure where to start? 101 Fragrance Blends on our blog rounds up customer-favorite pairings to help you find your first combination.

Are your fragrance oils safe for cold process soap?

Most are. Check the CP Soap tag and the individual product's Acceleration and Discoloration notes before use. Not every fragrance oil in this collection is CP-safe, so always confirm on the product page first.

For tips on getting fragrance to hold up through trace, cure, and beyond, see Anchoring Fragrances in Cold Process Soap on our blog.

What does "PS" mean next to a fragrance name?

PS stood for PureScent™, our clean-fragrance line. We've since dropped “PS” from fragrance names: PureScent and PureScent+ oils now carry a green PureScent badge instead, and you'll find them all in our PureScent collection. See PureScent vs PureScent+ for what each tier excludes.

Why Does My Fragrance Oil Bottle Look Like It's Not Full?

Our fragrance oils are filled by weight, not volume, so a 4 oz bottle contains a full 4 oz by weight. Since fragrance oils are denser than water, that weight can take up less physical space in the bottle than 4 fluid ounces of water would, so the fill line may look lower than expected even though you received the full amount you ordered.

What's the difference between a Fragrance Oil and a Fragrance Blend?

A straight Fragrance Oil is a single synthetic or blended scent profile. A Fragrance Blend combines fragrance oil with real essential oils for added depth and a more natural character.
