NO. 181 - Ethereal - Fragrance Oil for Soaps & Candles
NO. 181 - Ethereal is a Woody Floral Musk fragrance for women and men, capturing the beauty and radiance of a misty autumn morning. Low slung silvered mist glimmers with pale golden light as the sun starts its skyward arc. Dew drops on green leaves infuse with the burgeoning light to become shimmering diamonds of water.
This ethereal and beautiful atmosphere is impossible to contain, we are unable to hold it back, or stop it. We simply have to watch it diminish and vanish into the warming day and strengthening sunlight, as it leaves just its memory, gently imprinted on our heart.
Translucent, silvery, weightless. The sensation of a fine floral mist on the skin.

Scent Profile
A soft, diffusive burst of citrus light shines through the autumnal veil of mist with radiant tones of Bergamot, Lemon and Mandarin. Refreshing crushed green leaves evoke cool, moving air, and gently invigorating energy.
The heart magically suspends delicate, translucent petals in mid-air. Pale pink Cyclamen drift into Wild Roses and the aquatic notes of Water Lily. A thousand white startlets of waxy Jasmine are doused in a powdery dusting of Iris and shimmering droplets of dew.
Warming golden hues of Amber meld into rich notes of Sandalwoods as the mist slowly dissolves into the strengthening sunlight. Musky Cashmere shadows linger like the memory of something that was never entirely there.
Choose NO. 181 for its perfectly ethereal and weightless aroma. Embrace the diffusive soft green-citrus opening, suspended floral heart, cushioned by powdery Iris and golden Amberwood. Perfect for those who like their scents luminous and endlessly expansive.

Understanding The IFRA Guidelines for Maximum Dilution
Maximum dilution for this fragrance oil depends on the products you are planning on making. It should be noted that maximum dilutions are from a safety aspect only, based on the chemical composition of the oil.
In some cases these are very high, because all components are relatively benign. These amounts are not necessarily recommendations of how much to use in your recipe. They may smell too strong or make the item prohibitively expensive to produce.
As long as you remain below the advised limits, you can be as generous or as frugal as you like. Use more, use less. We’ll leave the creative stuff to you.
Based on the ingredients used, as per the International Fragrance Regulation Authority, the maximum dilutions given above apply.
