Lilacs have been cultivated since ancient times and play a role in Greek mythology while Willows are prominent in Greek and Native American lore for symbolizing love and flowers. This fragrance oil pays honor to both by blending notes of blue willow, water lilies, lilac blossoms, muguet, linden blossoms, wild bamboo, magnolia fields, mandarin leaf nuances, and subtle musk. This fragrance oil is very concentrated, and we recommend you begin testing with a lower percentage and working upward to achieve your desired results. Candle testing with GB 464 soy wax had a very strong cold and hot throw.

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.

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 like a tamed down lilac to my nose. Most lilac fragrances are too strong and give you a headache, this one is tamed down and very nice, I think the other notes add more balance to the scent overall. It performed beautifully in my recipe with no ricing, separation or acceleration. It did not discolor and the scent has stayed true and strong, though not overpowering. It's a very nice scent to add to your Spring floral lineup.
