NO. 163 - Grapefruit & Sage - Fragrance Oil for Soaps & Candles

NO. 163 - Grapefruit & Sage is a Citrus Aromatic fragrance for men and women, evoking a peaceful morning in a sunsoaked Mediterranean citrus grove. 

Fingers of sunlight stretch over glossy citrus trees laden with ripe, fragrant fruit and the reviving crisp scent of freshly cut mountain herbs waft on the morning breeze. 

Energizing, rejuvenating, reviving.  The scent of simple, polished elegance.

Scent Profile

Take a walk through the citrus grove as the sun starts to pass the horizon and arc skyward. Crisp, cool, refreshing dew rises from aromatic green herbs and swathes of Peppermint to awaken and revive you. Followed by an exhilarating sunburst of sharp Grapefruit and sparkling Lemon zest for a luminous and invigorating introduction that feels bright, clean and vibrant.

The sharp citrus brightness of the top notes surrender and soften into a calming herbal aromatic and dewy, floral heart. Fresh wisps of Lavender meld into Rose’s brightness and delicate floral transparency, before sinking into a pool of cool, Sage freshness and clarity. For a heartspace of calm, soft refinement and polished elegance.

The dry down is whisper soft and gently aromatic with the subtle warmth of spiced wood and musky afterglow. Masterfully anchoring the vitality and vibrance of citrus and herbal freshness, without weighing this light and airy fragrance down.

Choose NO. 163 for its clean, botanical freshness and refreshing aura. The vibrant citrus and aromatic herbs create a crisp vitality while delicate floralcy brings elegant balance and effortless polish. Perfect for those who like refined, uplifting and energising scents. Beautifully balanced for all genders.

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.
