A big hit with our customers desiring a "Southwestern" scent for their line. Fragrant braided sweetgrass with just a touch of cedar (we don't want to smell like a closet!) create this fresh and herbal blend! Men love this too! A very earthy, unisex fragrance that lends itself to blending. (Sage or patchouli really work with it!) Herbal, woody, and fresh! Extensively tested to give you a fragrance that "does it all"! Paraffin, soy, cold process soap, and incense tested. Our herbal-loving customers rave about this one! Perfect for your fall lineup! We recommend a pairing with Falling Leaves, Blackberry Sage, and White Sage.

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: I ahhhhdore this FO! I wish I could give it 10 stars as well! I love the scent and love it’s performance in soy wax. It’s softly sweet and the cedar comes in at the end to round it out. The cedar doesn’t overpower. I can’t say enough great things about this FO!NONE

"I made CP soap, it soaped..."
COMMENTS: I made CP soap, it soaped well, No A or D, smelled great BUT...then within a few hours it smelled like burnt plastic and my soap was weeping FO out of it. This batch was split into two, this FO didn't work and the second part of batch (different) FO no issues. I can only assume it was this FO. Advantages: No A or D in CP Disadvantages: Smelled like burnt plastic after made.

"Even though this wasn't a..."
COMMENTS: Even though this wasn't a scent I enjoyed I have to say it was def true to the description! I give it 5 stars for that and that it had good hot throw at 1oz per lb parasoy wax. The scent just isn't something I prefer. I didn't get much of the cedar mainly just the sweet grass. It reminded me of standing in our field with the horses while a breeze went through lol I used the remaining oil to mix with other scents. Advantages: Scent is true to description! Smells just like sweet grass. Disadvantages: Although I love the smell of sweet grass, I discovered it wasn't a scent I wanted inside the house lol
