Directions:
To Determine The Amount of Fragrance Oil Used In A Product:

The amount of fragrance that should be used in a formulation depends on three factors:

1) The maximum amount of scent the product base will accept .
2) The maximum IFRA skin safe level.
3) The amount of fragrance that smells good in your product.

You will look at these three maximum guidelines and use the LOWEST percentage.

For example: Desired smell is 5%, making MP soap is 3%, and the IFRA max use is 15%. You should not use more than 3% in your product. This 3% is the lowest of all of those numbers.

Maximum Product Base Guidelines:

MP Soap: 3%
CP, HP, CPOP Soap: 6%
Lotions and Scrubs: 1 – 2%
Bath Salts, Fizziest & Tub Soaks: 5-10%
Candle Wax: 6-12% (see specific wax for exact levels)

To Determine The IFRA Guidelines:

IFRA is a self-regulating trade organization that together with the industry's scientific center RIFM (the Research Institute for Fragrance Materials), establishes usage safety standards for materials that comprise fragrance and essential oils. Each year IFRA updates their standards based on sound science.

Wholesale Supplies Plus updates IFRA documents annually so that customers can stay up-to-date with the latest science. If you find IFRA levels have changed for your formula, it is standard to take 2 years to update products in the market. You can find Wholesale Supplies Plus IFRA documents on the “documents” tab of this product page.

Additional Information:

Fragrance oils that contain vanilla or vanillin will change color. The color change can take days, weeks, or months and can vary from a light ivory to dark brown. Our Crafter’s Choice Vanilla Color Stabilizers and Crafter’s Choice Vanilla Color Neutralizer will prevent some products from changing color. Oils that are dark in color, contain floral notes or spices may in time naturally change color.

Boy they were not kidding!! immediately froze. Had to use my hands to stuff it in the mold as quick as possible. Finished product looks pretty rustic, but smells great and I just tell customers it was the look I was going for. haha. Great fo, but be prepared to work fast!!

"Great Scent" COMMENTS:  I was afraid the smell wouldn't come through because of the low usage rate, but it smells amazing. Good scent retention 6 weeks out. I used in beer soap and it sold very well. I had a little acceleration and overheating, but the overheating could have been from the beer. I will put in the freezer next time. Loved this scent!

"Used in goat milk CP soap" COMMENTS:  Love the fragrance, held up fairly well in my goat milk soap. Popular fall fragrance we will have to get more of now that we are doing lotions and "accessory" products with our soap. We use goat's milk in all our soaps, and fragrances can do funny things with them but this is one that works out pretty well and holds up after the cure.

"Cold process soap with beer and Goat's milk" COMMENTS:  I don't usually do reviews but I thought I should chime in on this one. Before purchasing this product to use in cold process soap making, I tried to read all the reviews that pertained. Seemed like half the reviews could pull in off while half could not, so I gave it a try (3 times!) I made sure to boil the alcohol out of the beer (not sure this is necessary), and mixed all together at a lower temp. Every time it would seperate period. I would have burned out my hand mixer to mix it any more. I dont know if the milk and or beer were factors that made it different from other cold process soap makers but it just would not work. I decided to use a scent I already have used in goats milk soaps and it worked perfectly. So if you are using both beer and goats milk, this fragrance separates. As for the scent, yes right out of the bottle smells like bubble gum but once it is in the soap it hints of cinnamon and maybe green apple, very fallish. I know this because I rebatched a batch. I do like the scent and may consider making an unscented batch, melting it down and adding the fragrance but not sure anything is worth all that work.

"Goes Perfect w/ a Red Ale for Soap!" COMMENTS:  I love this scent! I agree with others that this warm fragrance is amazing - I pick up the aroma of apples, citrus peel, spice, and hops...all blended to perfection! In my CP, I used a red apple ale instead of water...and did not discount. I also used my 80/20 (soft/hard) soap formulation and soaped at room-temp to hold off acceleration. There were some separation issues but I was able to re-incorporate with the stick blender; the separation was probably due to my error and not the fragrance as I have not seen any other soapers saying they had the same issue.

"Heavenly..." COMMENTS:  This scent is absolutely wonderful. I decided to start making candles again for this holiday season, and this is my favorite scent by far. I love the gentle hoppy scent that mixes oh so well with the other spices. Strong notes of cinnamon and I pick up a very subtle citrusy tone as well. Absolutely love this scent!

"Oh my goodness" COMMENTS:  This has gentle hops undertones, some cinnamon notes and a bit of some sort of apple like fragrance. This reminds me of going to the farms in the fall and the smell of hay and straw, but in a good way! This is perfect when blended with santas pipe too as rounding out scent with a bit more holiday touch to it (in my opinion). This fragrance on its own is a favorite in my house!

"Great Scent, CP-Beware!" COMMENTS:  I really do like the scent of this one. It is curiously "ale-y" with a good bit of fruitiness. HowEVER, it is a rascal in cold process. I soap cool and do not gel... but in my first test batch, this one went immediately grainy and into a hot gel, and also turned orange! The orange faded off to a medium brown, but it still had a weird grainy and sort of oily texture. But I reeeeeally like the scent, so I tried it again as 60% of a blend (thinking that might calm it down a bit), and was careful to only hand-stir (no stick blender). It still went grainy very quickly, and I had to put it in front of a fan to keep it from going into hot separating gel. Even though it is a HUGE pain in the hiney to work with in CP, it has gone over stupendously, and I want to let people know that it is worth the effort. It isn't often that I get a new scent that is so universally swooned over! It would probably be fine and easier to use in HP, and other applications. PRODUCT USED IN:   Soap - Cold Process
