Can They Be Used In The Same Way As Essential Oils?
Our Plant-Based Fragrance Oils are suitable for use in clean beauty, personal care and home fragrancing applications where cost-effective fragrance is required and synthetic ingredients are not desired. We do not, however, recommend these oils for use in aromatherapy applications and formulations. For those that desire to manufacture products that are more closely suited for holistic applications including aromatherapy, we strongly recommend that you work with our line of pure Essential Oils, Absolutes and CO2 Extracts.
Essential oils, absolutes, extracts and natural aromatic isolates are highly concentrated. Therefore, our Plant-Based Fragrance Oils are not necessarily milder, safer or less allergenic than synthetic fragrances or essential oils. All fragrance oils, essential oils and absolutes should be properly diluted before use.
Can They Be Used In The Same Way As Synthetic Fragrance Oils?
Our Plant-Based Fragrance Oils can be used in a wide range of clean beauty, personal care products, soap making and candle making applications.
However, our Plant-Based Fragrance Oil line may be more challenging to work with than synthetic fragrance oils because they do not contain synthetic stabilizers. In that regard, they may be similar to Essential Oils in the challenges they present when formulating natural personal care products.
Therefore, testing and experimentation are important when working with our Plant-Based Fragrance Oil line. Your existing formulations may require adjustment when adapting them to incorporate these fragrances.
The recommended usage rates vary for each of our Plant-Based Fragrance Oils and the application that it will be used in. The usage rates are based on the specific essential oils and natural isolates contained within each oil. Please refer to our IFRA International Fragrance Association (IFRA) Certificates for the specific usage rates.
We certify that the each Plant-Based Fragrance Oil is in compliance with the standards of the International Fragrance Association [IFRA 49th Amendment (January 2020)], provided the fragrance is used at the maximum concentration level(s) as shown in its IFRA Certificate.
