NO. 5602 Fragrance Oil for Soaps & Candles

NO. 5602 is a botanical Woody Floral fragrance for women and men, evoking the Greek island of Cythera, nestled deep in the Mediterranean.

Inspired by the island's natural translation from day through to night, where sunwarmed wood yields to the cooler tones of ocean breeze and nocturnal animals begin to stir in the deepening shadows. Vespertine petals gently unfurl to greet the rising arc of the moon as it illuminates this coastal garden. 

Wonderfully resilient, profoundly reverent and perfectly captures the timeless aura of the Mediterranean. 

Aromatic, Dry, Woody.

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.
