NO. 59 - PatchouliFragrance Oil for Soaps & Candles

NO. 59 - Patchouli Fragrance Oil

Patchouli Fragrance Oil is not a pure essential oil but contains fixatives to make a longer-lasting and more fragrant product.  It works beautifully for Candle Making, Soap Making, and Personal Care Applications such as Lotion, Shampoo, and Liquid Soap.  This list is incomplete, and we invite you to play, create and invent a million other ways to use it. We recommend you test a small amount before scaling up to larger-size formulations.  As with all VINEVIDA products, these fragrance oils are intended for external use only and should not be ingested under any circumstances.

Soaps and Bathroom Fragrances

Patchouli Fragrance oil lends itself well to bathroom products. Maximum dilution for soaps, shampoos or any other IFRA category 9 product is unrestricted . This category also covers laundry pretreatment and cleaning products.

Maximum dilution for making an aerosol room spray or any other item that will be propelled using a pump is also unrestricted.

Hand Made Perfumery

Fragrance oils make wonderful additions to hand made perfumes. For cologne designed to be applied to freshly shaved skin, the maximum dilution of 52.5% is appropriate. This would apply to both Eau de Toilettes or fine fragrances. There is no restriction for hydroalcoholic products designed for unshaved skin.

If you decide to use Patchouli Fragrance oil in deodorant or antiperspirant products, the maximum dilution is 10.66%. This applies to either roll on or body spray products.

Body Care

IFRA Guidelines for Maximum Dilution

Maximum dilution for this fragrance oil depends on the products you are planning on making.

It should be noted that maximum dilutions are from a safety aspect only, based on the chemical composition of the oil. In some cases, these are very high, because all components are relatively benign. These amounts are not necessarily recommendations of how much to use in your recipe. They may smell too strong or make the item prohibitively expensive to produce. As long as you remain below the advised limits, you can be as generous or parsimonious as you like. Use more, use less. We’ll leave the creative stuff to you.

Based on the ingredients used, as per the International Fragrance Regulation Authority, the following maximum dilutions apply. 

Safety Caution

Patchouli Fragrance Oil is not approved under IFRA safety guidelines for any kind of lip or mouth related products as per their categories 1 and 6.

We recommend testing a small amount before scaling up to larger size formulations. As with all Vinevida products. These fragrance oils are intended for external use only and should not be ingested under any circumstances.

While Patchouli Fragrance oil will have no therapeutic properties, because it is a synthetic product, it’s a wonderful way to scent your home. Have the best time experimenting and making your home an ever more beautiful expression of you.
