Use for NO. 1118 Fragrance Oil

Aromatherapy 

Imagine yourself in a Sicilian Lemon grove, plucking it right off the tree, as you slide the knife through the flesh the essential oils in the zest sparkle out and the juice flows readily onto the chopping board. Naughtily, dipping a slice into sugar and then sucking the sour lemon flesh free. Mouthwatering, refreshing but ultimately comforting and decadent. 

Candles

Gorgeous for the bathroom, to make it feel super fresh, bright, and clean.

Custom Soap and Bath Products

Add a few drops to the cold process or melt and pour soaps to fragrance your bathroom beautifully.

Air Fresheners and Linen Sprays

Dilute a couple of drops of NO. 1118 Fragrance Oil into a teaspoon of alcohol, then fill up your spray bottle with water. Freshen the furniture, sheets, and carpet.

Crafting Projects

Perfect for use at any time of the year but also wonderful for the holidays. It works brilliantly in wax melts, delivering a strong and lasting fragrance. Also rather gorgeous as a linen spray for refreshing the bed linen. 

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 parsimonious 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 following maximum dilutions apply.
