A scent that leans towards fresh, herbal, earthy. This opens with wild spearmint, moringa tea leaves, and green peppers (trust us, it works!). Clary sage, geranium, and bergamot mixed with a foundation of amber and sandalwood. Everything combines to an invigorating clean unisex scent that would be great in a spa line. This is a sophisticated herbal scent that isn't relying on the old patchouli standby. This is more fresh and pure. Zen.

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: This fragrance smells very green and fresh, herbaceous with a slight floral background. I can smell the green pepper and it totally works. I used it for a succulent soap and it performed perfectly. No acceleration, no ricing, no separation, my soap is very green so I'm not certain on discoloration, but it doesn't seem to have discolored as there are no signs of uneven color or darkening. The scent is strong! A little goes a long way. This would be very nice for Spring or a garden themed soap.

"Clean and green"
COMMENTS: This FO is super strong and difficult to gauge OOB. It soaps beautifully with no A or D. At 5% of my oils, the test bar was crazy strong at four months. At 3% of my oils, the test bar is still strong and true. Clean, green, complex and refreshing notes. Great oil, and a little goes a very, very long way!

COMMENTS: This is a lovely green fragrance... the herbs really come through. It would be fantastic on its own, but I'm planning to use it to add an herbal note to a bakery blend. It's very fresh-- RE's description is accurate!
