Azlok Cherry Blossom Fragrance Oil is a highly concentrated, external-use scent oil that blends sweet cherry with soft blossom florals. It is made for cool applications like candles, soaps, bath bombs and body care rather than for eating or applying neat to the skin. A little goes a long way, so most projects need only a small percentage by weight.
What Cherry Blossom Fragrance Oil smells like
The scent is a light, fruity-floral delight. You get the juicy top note of ripe cherries, rounded off by the gentle, powdery sweetness of blossom flowers. It is a cheerful, spring-like fragrance that feels fresh without being sharp, which makes it easy to work into a wide range of products. Because it is a liquid concentrate, the smell is strong straight from the bottle and softens beautifully once blended.
Common uses
This fragrance oil is versatile across bath, body and home fragrance projects. It is suitable for:
- Bath bombs and bath salts
- Cold-process and melt-and-pour soaps
- Body and facial scrubs
- Creams, lotions and body butters
- Shower gels, shampoos and conditioners
- Lip balms and lipsticks (external cosmetic use)
- Scented candles, wax melts and reed diffusers
Small businesses and hobbyists both use it to give a signature scent to a product line. The larger pack sizes, going up to 25 KG, are meant for makers producing in bulk.
How to use it
Always measure by weight, not by guesswork, and add fragrance at the right stage of your recipe.
- Candles: Add roughly 6-10% of the wax weight, stirring it in once the wax has cooled to the fragrance-load temperature recommended for your wax type.
- Soaps: Use about 2-3% of your total batch weight. In cold-process soap, blend it at light trace.
- Bath and body products: Keep it around 1-2% for wash-off items and lower for leave-on creams and lotions.
- Lip products: Use very sparingly, as these are used near the mouth.
Do a small test batch before scaling up. Fragrance behaviour changes with different waxes, soap bases and emulsions, so a trial helps you confirm scent strength and that the oil does not affect colour or texture.
Safety notes
Cherry Blossom Fragrance Oil is for external use only. Please follow basic maker safety:
- Do not ingest, and keep it away from children and pets.
- Do not apply the concentrate directly to skin; always dilute it into a finished product.
- Patch-test any new leave-on formulation on a small area before regular use.
- Work in a ventilated space and avoid contact with eyes.
- Follow safe usage percentages for the product type you are making.
- Refer to the MSDS and, if selling, follow cosmetic labelling norms for your region.
This is a fragrance oil, not an essential oil, so it is designed purely for scent and does not carry therapeutic claims.
Buying and storage tips
Azlok offers this fragrance oil in sizes from 100 GM for trials up to 25 KG for production runs, so you can match the quantity to your batch size. Buy a smaller pack first to test how the scent performs in your specific recipe before committing to bulk.
Store the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Kept well, the shelf life is around two years. Label your bottle with the purchase date, and avoid leaving the cap open, since fragrance oils can lose strength and change on prolonged air exposure.
FAQ
Can I apply Cherry Blossom Fragrance Oil directly on my skin?
No. It is a highly concentrated oil for external use in finished products. Always dilute it into a cream, soap or other formulation at safe usage levels, and patch-test leave-on products first.
Is this the same as cherry blossom essential oil?
No. It is a fragrance oil made for scent in candles, soaps and body care. Essential oils are steam-distilled or extracted from plants, while fragrance oils are formulated blends. This product is meant for aroma only.
How much should I use in candles and soap?
As a general guide, use about 6-10% of wax weight in candles and around 2-3% in soap. Start low, test a small batch, and adjust to the strength you prefer.
How long does it last and how should I store it?
The shelf life is about two years when stored in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and heat, with the cap kept tightly closed.
Which pack size should I choose?
For testing recipes, start with the 100 GM pack. Once you are happy with the scent in your product, move up to the larger sizes for regular or bulk production.
