How To Blend Fragrance Oils | Creating A Unique Scent | Let's Talk Ratios!

~TODAY'S VID:
I receive a lot of questions and concerns regarding starting a candle line but feeling like the market is over saturated with candle makers and sellers. And while this may be true - I am firm believer that there is only one YOU - and can't no one be you but YOU! You have a unique story and you just may encourage someone with your line of scents.
However, if you are concerned about standing out amongst the crowd from a fragrance perspective - why not make your own scents. Fragrance blending and coming up with your own scent combinations are fun and allows the creative side of you shine through. So today, I am going to show you how to blend fragrance oils to create a unique scent - plus, help walk through some ratios to get you started! Enjoy 😊
P.S. I do keep a log of video ideas and suggestions, so more videos down the pipe. Thank you so much the support, feedback, recommendations, comments, and encouragement!

What’s up everyone...hope you had a good week! Have you ever done any fragrance blending? If so, share some of your scent combinations! Let's chat!

[@sarah_style1]

hello i have bad luck with oil scent last weeks i buy from the flaming candle Peach and is not hot throw.

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

@@sarah_style1 Unfortunately you just don't know until you purchase :) I always buy 1oz sample to avoid spending too much money.

[@tabbylove3772]

@@LadyCIMONNECandleCo where do you purchase your fragrance oils from?

[@dcarter455]

How long do you typically leave your fragrance blends to marry before using them in a candle? I’m just getting into candle making and was curious if it has to cure at all the way it does after the candle has been made?

[@islandstar8974]

So question. With my Jar I need 180 grams of wax and 18 grams of FO. Now I tried 3 blend of FO. FO1-9 grams of FO, FO2-5.4 grams of FO and FO3- 3.6grams of FO which =18 grams of FO as needed for my jar. Now I’m confused if the math is correct why is my wax sweating. I use COCO apricot and SOY10 to different wax and I follow the online instructions. Do u have any suggestions. ??? Thanks.

[@rajeshwarishukla4835]

A tutorial that goes from strip test to actual blend. Really helpful. Also the important point here, that blending and letting it sit in a closed container for few days, has worked for me. Thanks ❤

[@MariahIsom]

Now that’s smart to dip and smell them together ‼️

[@jacquelynmangum5848]

This was very helpful and simple math. I have been thinking about experimenting with blending fragrances. I love your recommendation of using the 1oz sample to test the scent to not be wasteful incase you don't like the scent. Thank you again..

Hi! Wanted to know if the flashpoint would matter? Would all of the fragrances have to have the same flashpoint? Thank you!

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

No it's not of big concern. Most fragrances will be around 180 degrees or lower. Don't overly stress about it!

[@BeautifulDisaster314]

With starting out new to candle making would you recommend a newbe to create their scents first before deciding on wax type?

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

It doesn't really matter - both are important! Then you can begin to test :)

Hiiiii. Okay so I have questions lol. I'm looking into making wax melts but I have a bunch of essential oils that I bought (not knowing there was a thing called fragrance oil) but I really just want to know how long should the wax melts cure. I've been doing 24 hours but when going to break off a cube its soft also I am using American Soy Wax

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

A day to a week :)

[@WhooKim]

Thank you..

[@taru5011]

Hello, I have tried making soy wax essential oil candles with and without blends many times. But I got a burn or ignition-like smell when I lit the candle rather than a fragrance that I blended. Even tired different essential oil brands... May I know what is causing that? That will be a huge help. Thank you.

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

I am not sure...I do not use essential oils and haven't tested with them to understand how it burns. Thanks!

[@melg.6042]

When you blend your own fragrances, how would you know what notes are on top, middle, and base?

[@verawollery5977]

Say for example you are using a 4oz of wax what amount of oil is needed ?

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

I have several formula videos on my channel

[@Merjlenaa]

If I’m making a candle and the jar is 14 oz candle jar, and I’m combining two scents how much of each scent would I put into the candle ?!

[@swarnikareema]

Depends on what percentage of oil you're going to use.. For instance if you're using 10% of wax wt 100gm, that is 10ml, n blending two oils at 50-50% then 50% of 10 ml twice.. That is, 5ml of each oil. Hope this helps..

[@cynthiaphillips8281]

Is it 1oz to 8oz jar?

[@mateoalvarez5579]

Ik this is a little random but how do you buy stuff wholesale from candlescience ?

Candle Science is already a wholesale supplier, so you just go to their site and purchase :)

I want to make body oil in bulk(256 oz at a time) but I don’t know how much fragrance oil I should get? Should I get 8oz of each fragrance( I’m mixing 2 fragrances together) or 16 oz of each fragrance? The amount of body oil that I’m making at a time is 256 oz.

[@LadyCIMONNECandleCo]

You can try a 16oz but you may have to do some math to see once you purchase to know your formula 👍🏽

[@mishabates82]

Is it possible to mix f.o and essential oil together.

[@Sweet_dream35]

Essential oils are tricky because the blend temp is different from fragrance oils. I would stick to blending fragrance oils
