Now that we’re into the coldest part of winter, I thought it would be nice to have our fragrance of the month something that would remind us that Spring, and the warmer weather is only a month or so away.
Sweet Pea Vanilla is one of our most popular fragrances. It sells consistently well year round for both candles and soaps.
Sweet Pea Vanilla fragrance oil will be on sale for the entire month on August, so be in quick while stocks last!
With winter well and truly here, there’s something comforting about yummy hot chocolate!
While real chocolate isn’t so good for the diet, this delicious chocolate fudge fragrance is a welcome aroma on a chilly winter evening.
Chocolate fudge has a perfect pour, no ricing, no acceleration, discolours to a bright gold, but then turns to a dark chocolate in soap. I love to mix Chocolate Fudge with an equal amount of Peppermint fragrance oil. This makes the most divine mint chocolate chip smell! It reminds me of Cadbury’s Peppermint Old Gold chocolate, yum!
Chocolate Fudge fragrance oil will be on sale for the entire month on July, so be in quick while stocks last!
Like most tea scents, Lychee & Black Tea has a light, refreshing aroma which is enhanced by the sweetness of the lychee fruit.
A delicate fragrance made from black tea leaves infused with the sweet exotic scent of the lychee.
This is a wonderful fragrance to soap with, it doesn’t cause any ricing or acceleration. It discolours the tiniest amount to a slight off white, but it’s so mild it’s barely noticeable, and certainly won’t affect any soap colourants you use. This fragrance matches well with Ruby Rose mica which has similar colouring to the outside of the lychee fruit.
Lychee & Black Tea fragrance oil will be on sale for the entire month on June, so be in quick while stocks last!
For our inaugural Fragrance of the Month I thought I would kick things off with a classic, almost universally loved scent… French Vanilla. We’ve had several other vanilla fragrances in our line since we first opened, but we’ve only had French Vanilla for the last week or so. It’s already proving to be as popular as our other vanilla based scents!
French Vanilla has a warm, slightly buttery, sweet aroma that is amazing in both candles and soaps.
Like any vanilla fragrance it does turn your soaps to brown, so if you’d like to do a swirl leave a portion of your soap batter unscented so that it won’t discolour. Or use a different scent that doesn’t discolour for the swirl portion.
A few of my favourite vanilla combinations are:
Vanilla & Sandalwood
Vanilla & Lavender
Vanilla & Cinnamon
