Patchouli Rain is like no other fragrance oil. It's rich, deep, and mysterious. This fragrance oil is a fresh rain and earthy patchouli with notes of lily of the valley, cyclamen, fresh ozone, earthen moss, and hints of sweet citrus. Rain has never smelled better! Very strong throw in soy wax. Fragrance oil was tested in GB 464 soy wax with a one week cure.
CP Notes: "Soaped great!" "No discoloration, no acceleration. Great scent retention."

Rustic Escentuals, Inc. certifies that this fragrance product is in compliance with the standards of the International Fragrance Association, provided the fragrance is used in the above application (s) at the noted maximum concentration level(s).
The "Maximum Use Level for Skin Exposure" is the amount of fragrance, flavor and essential oil that can come in contact with the skin. It does not mean that your base product can perform at these levels. You must test each oil in each application for evaluation of desired performance. Baby products have lower use levels than those listed above. If a desired application is not listed above, please call us at 216-503-9361 for maximum skin levels for skin exposure.
International Nomenclature of Cosmetic Ingredients (INCI): Fragrance
Common Name Ingredient Listing (FDA Approved): Fragrance
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.

"I LOVE this scent in my C..."
COMMENTS: I LOVE this scent in my CP soap.. I did experience some ricing immediately upon adding. However, it stick blended right back out. I did have to change my design because of the additional stick blending cause of increased trace, but nonetheless this fragrance smells so good I will just figure that into my next soap that uses this FO! Will continue to buy, in fact I will be buying a bigger bottle next time! Advantages: This smells so incredibly good! Scent retention is strong after cure. Disadvantages: Ricing, but again like I said it stick blends right out!

"I cannot say enough good ..."
COMMENTS: I cannot say enough good things about this scent. I expected an overly clean rain scent or dominant patchouli, but this is a perfect combination of clean and musky that had me in olfactory bliss. I used it in soy wax, it had a really good cold throw that filled up my entire kitchen while mixing (haven't tested the hot throw yet). This would make a fantastic cologne or soap too. If you're thinking about it, give it a shot. It may surprise you. I loved it so much I immediately ordered more. Advantages: Great cold throw in soy Disadvantages: None

COMMENTS: I don't usually write too many reviews but I had to take the time with this one. This fragrance is AMAZING! I have looked for almost a year for a fragrance with patchouli in it that isn't overpowering. This is absolutely perfect! It smells so good when showering with it. This is also becoming a best seller with our customers. Thanks, Rustic Escentuals! You guys are awesome yet again!

"Amazing, beautiful, earth..."
COMMENTS: Amazing, beautiful, earthy warm scent. I was buying an expensive men's body soap for my husband and we both LOVED the scent. Then they discontinued it. I was so disappointed. However 2 weeks later I found this free soap same in my box and it was the exact scent! So now I have a bottle and can't wait use it! Think "Egyptian musk" :) Advantages: Smells wonderful and comforting.

"I love this scent! I mad..."
COMMENTS: I love this scent! I made a small batch of soap the first time I ordered this with a 2 oz bottle. Everyone wanted a bar! I have since ordered a 16 oz bottle and have made a 5 lb loaf of soap. It is still curing but I can't wait until it is ready! I have also made tarts with this and the scent throw is great! I think this is a unique scent. Definitely a keeper in my line! Advantages: Smells good
I can't get enough of this scent Disadvantages: Seems to accelerate trace a bit
