NO. 113 - Fresh Balsam - Fragrance Oil for Soaps & Candles

NO. 113 - Fresh Balsam is an exhilarating evergreen Woody Aromatic fragrance for men and women. This aroma captures the pure, uplifting breath of winter woods and slender Pine needles glistening with wintery frost.
Serene, clarifying and refreshing. A scent that purifies both space and spirit.

Scent Profile 

Dawn breaks across a cold forest, the air alive with the sparkling citrus frost of Lemon Zest and the piercing brightness of glistening Pine needles. The cool, airy freshness of Eucalyptus drifts like silver mist across frosted leaves, breathing clarity into the quiet morning and crisp, winter air.

A deeper, earthier shade of green meets soft, floral greenery glowing beneath needles and golden drops of resin oozing from the trunks. As the path winds into the heart of the Fir trees, nature becomes intimate, close and you can almost feel its breathing.

The forest settles into quiet stillness and rich notes of Cedarwood warm the cold earth, while soft, airy, balsamic woods drift upward, like fingers of sunlight filtering through wintery branches.  A quiet, grounding presence of Musk lingers long after.

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.
