Choosing the Right Fragrance Oil

Not every fragrance oil performs the same way in every project. Our oils are tested and labeled for real-world use: CP Soap, MP Soap, Bath Bombs, Body Lotion, Perfumery, Candles & Wax, Deodorant, Diffusers, and Room Spray. Check each product's Fragrance Use filter to find oils rated for your specific application.Cold Process Soap Makers: every fragrance oil we carry lists its own tested Acceleration, Discoloration, and Scent Retention ratings right on the product page, so there's no guesswork and no surprises mid-batch. Look for "None" acceleration and "Strong" scent retention if you want predictable, reliable pours.PureScent™ Formulas: our PureScent line is reformulated to be Prop 65 compliant and safe for marine life, without sacrificing throw or accuracy. If you see a "PS" variant of a favorite scent, that's the upgraded, cleaner-burning version.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 stands for PureScent™, our reformulated line built to meet Prop 65 compliance and marine-safety standards while keeping the scent as close to the original as possible.

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.
