Azlok's Christmas Wreath Oil Blend is a festive aroma blend of pine, clove and lavender oils, made to fill a room with a warm, woodsy, slightly minty scent that suits the holiday season. It is a liquid concentrate meant for diffusing and DIY craft use — not for drinking or applying neat to skin.
Priced at ₹449 and available in sizes from 100 gm right up to 20 kg, it works for both a single home diffuser and small businesses making candles, soaps and reed diffusers in bulk.
What is in the blend
The Christmas Wreath Oil Blend combines three familiar aromatic notes:
- Pine oil — the fresh, resinous, forest-like note that gives the blend its "just brought home a fir tree" character.
- Clove oil — a warm, spicy, slightly sweet note that adds depth and that cosy holiday feel.
- Lavender essential oil — a soft, herbaceous note that rounds off the sharper edges of pine and clove.
The finished blend is a light yellow liquid with a fresh, minty-woodsy odour. It dissolves in alcohol and in some fixed (carrier) oils, but not in water.
How to use it
This is a versatile fragrance blend. A few practical ways to put it to work:
- Electric or reed diffusers: Add a few drops to your diffuser water or reed base. Start small — 3 to 5 drops in a home diffuser is usually plenty — and adjust to taste.
- Candle making: Blend into melted soy or paraffin wax at the fragrance stage, following your wax's recommended load. Test a small batch first, since scent throw varies by wax and wick.
- Soap and melt-and-pour projects: Add at trace (for cold process) or once melted (for melt-and-pour), keeping to skin-safe usage rates.
- Room and linen sprays: Because it is alcohol-soluble, you can mix it into an alcohol-based spray. Shake before each use.
- Simmer pots and potpourri: A drop or two on dried orange slices, cinnamon sticks or pine cones refreshes homemade festive decor.
Safety and dilution notes
Aroma blends are concentrated, so handle them with care:
- Always dilute before any skin contact and do a patch test on your inner arm 24 hours ahead. Clove oil in particular can irritate sensitive skin.
- Do not ingest. This is a fragrance and craft blend, not a food or medicine.
- Use in a well-ventilated space and avoid prolonged, strong exposure in small closed rooms.
- Keep away from children and pets. Some essential oils are not suitable for animals.
- Keep away from open flame when handling the neat oil, and store separately from heat.
- If you are pregnant, nursing, or have a health condition, check with a qualified professional before using aromatherapy products.
Buying and storage tips
The blend has a shelf life of about two years when stored well. To keep it fresh:
- Store in a cool, dark place, away from direct sunlight and heat, which can degrade the aroma over time.
- Keep the cap tightly closed to reduce oxidation and evaporation.
- Choose your pack size to match your use — the 100 gm bottle suits home diffusing, while the larger 1 kg to 20 kg packs make sense for makers producing candles or soaps in volume.
- Buy quantities you will realistically use within the shelf life rather than over-stocking.
If you are experimenting for the first time, the 100 gm size from Azlok is a low-risk way to test how the scent performs in your particular candles or diffuser before committing to a bulk order.
