Directions: All About IFRA
We have IFRA on all fragrance oils and flavor oils on our website.
What do the maximum levels mean? Let's use Almond Paradise as an example. The IFRA guidelines on this state that there are no restrictions for soaps, shampoos, lotions, etc. So does that mean you can use 100% in your product? No. That would mean your product consists of straight fragrance oil.
The IFRA states the *max* that can be used, not the recommended amount. It is the responsibility of the maker to do their research to see what the recommended usage rate of fragrance oil for their particular recipe is.
For soap, as a general rule of thumb you will use up to 5% of fragrance oil in Cold Process (CP) soap and up to 3% in Melt and Pour (M&P) soap.
So, if you see a fragrance oil and the IFRA says 23% for soap, don't use 23%. IFRA is important when it comes to lower numbers. There are a few fragrance oils that have max usage rates that are less than the percentages shown above. In that case, you can only use the max shown for the oil.

COMMENTS: I fell in love with it on the first sniff. Most masculine scents are hinted with marine or something "cool" which us fine, but this one is more warm and sensual and smells DIVINE!!! The men love this one, and Ezra which is more "cool" scented. I use them in candles, cologne, beard oil and beard balm. Huge hit.

"This scent is mesmerizing..."
COMMENTS: This scent is mesmerizing and alluring. I purchased for my men collection, but women love it to - so it will be listed as unisex. Love the sample and brought a 4 oz and now will be buying the 16 oz. They have a permanent customer on this fragrance. Advantages: Soaps wonderfully in my cold process soap. No discoloration, but I used colorants in this batch. No acceleration at all I was able to do the design with no problems. Scent is holding up in my now 6 month cp soap.
COMMENTS: This an amazing dupe of Jo Malone's - Black Vetyver Cafe at the fraction of the cost from other vendors. No need to go anywhere else. It is smokey, sexy and exotic. he perfect coffee shop date fragrance! Advantages: The composition is amazing Disadvantages: I wish the longevity was a little strong.
