Do not apply directly to the skin. All our fragrance oils are measured in grams, not milliliters. Bottle fill levels may vary due to differences in oil density, which affects volume.

Discoloration Potential: Light
Despite lacking vanillin, the formula of Lotus and Sandalwood Fragrance Oil contains numerous oxidation-prone aldehydes, fixatives, and natural extracts known to deepen in tone slowly over time.
- Mild yellowing or ambering may occur over time, particularly in white soap, uncolored wax, or clear bases.
- Works well in earth-toned, amber, or floral designs where soft darkening is visually acceptable.
- Less ideal for pure-white or transparent products unless discoloration is masked or stabilized.
Application Compatibility
This fragrance is oil-soluble and designed for use in oil-based and alcohol-based formulations. It does not mix directly with water-based systems without the use of an appropriate solubilizer.
Storage
Store in a cool, dark, and airtight environment to preserve stability and minimize oxidation over time.
Usage & Performance
Fragrance performance varies depending on the base, formulation, and production conditions. Cold throw, hot throw, diffusion strength, and longevity are influenced by the materials used and the manufacturing process.
A typical development process involves:
- Initial scent evaluation (10g sample)
- Small batch testing (e.g. 50g scale)
- Full-scale production once performance is validated
Testing under your specific conditions is standard practice in product development. Evaluation at each stage is required prior to scaling.
Recommended usage guidelines
- Candles: 7%-12%
- Reed diffusers: 15%-25%
