6 Fruity Fragrance Oils Sample Kit: A Beginner's Guide to Scenting Your DIY Makes
The Azlok 6 Fruity Fragrance Oils Sample Kit gives you six 10 ml bottles of ready-to-use fruity scents so you can test aromas across candles, soaps, lotions and bath bombs before committing to a full-size bottle. The kit includes Strawberry Cream, Papaya, Tropical Fruit, Blackberry, Raspberry and Green Apple, and each oil is vegan, phthalate-free and paraben-free.
If you are new to scenting your DIY projects, a sample kit is the most sensible way to start. Instead of buying one large bottle and hoping you like it, you get to smell, blend and experiment with a small range at a reasonable price of ₹599.
What's inside the kit
Six fruity fragrance oils, 10 ml each, in a single pack:
- Strawberry Cream — sweet, creamy and dessert-like
- Papaya — soft, tropical and mellow
- Tropical Fruit — a bright, mixed-fruit punch
- Blackberry — deep, jammy and slightly tart
- Raspberry — juicy and pink-fruit fresh
- Green Apple — crisp, tangy and clean
What you can make with them
Fragrance oils are far more concentrated than the fruit they mimic, so a little goes a long way. Common uses for this kit include:
- Candles — soy, coconut or paraffin wax
- Cold-process and melt-and-pour soap
- Body lotions and creams
- Bath bombs and bath salts
- Coffee and sugar body scrubs
- Reed diffusers and room sprays
How to use fragrance oils
Dosing depends on what you are making. These are general starting points, not fixed rules — always follow the guidance for your specific base or wax.
- Candles: around 6–10% fragrance by weight of the wax. For 100 g of wax, that is roughly 6–10 g of oil. Add it once the melted wax has cooled to the temperature recommended by your wax supplier, then stir gently for a couple of minutes.
- Melt-and-pour soap: about 1.5–3% of the soap weight. Add it when the base is melted but not too hot, and pour quickly.
- Lotions and scrubs: keep it light, usually well under 1%, and add at the cooling stage.
- Bath bombs: a few drops per batch is plenty; too much can affect how they fizz.
Because the vials are only 10 ml, treat this kit as an exploration set. Once you know which scent works for your recipe, you can order a larger size.
Blending ideas
Half the fun is combining scents. A few easy pairings to try:
- Strawberry Cream + Raspberry for a berry-dessert candle
- Green Apple + Tropical Fruit for a fresh summer soap
- Blackberry + Raspberry for a rich, jammy body scrub
- Papaya + Tropical Fruit for a holiday-style room spray
Start with small test batches. Note the drop counts so you can repeat a blend you love.
Safety notes
Fragrance oils are for external, craft use only.
- Do not ingest them, and keep them away from children and pets.
- Always do a patch test on skin before using a finished lotion, soap or scrub, especially if you have sensitive skin.
- Use in a ventilated space and avoid direct contact with eyes.
- Fragrance oils are not the same as essential oils and are not intended for aromatherapy or medicinal use.
- For skin products, respect the usage percentages recommended for your base.
Buying and storage tips
Store the bottles tightly capped, upright, in a cool, dark place away from sunlight and heat. Fragrance oils can degrade if exposed to air and light over time, so close the caps promptly after use. Label any blends you mix so you don't lose track. Kept well, these oils stay usable for a long time.
Azlok's sample kit is a low-risk way to build your scent library, and because each oil is vegan and free from phthalates and parabens, it suits makers who want cleaner formulations.
FAQ
Can I use these fragrance oils directly on my skin?
No. They should be diluted into a suitable base such as lotion, soap or a carrier before skin contact, and only within safe usage percentages. Always patch-test first.
How many candles can I make from 10 ml?
At a typical 6–10% load, 10 ml is enough to scent roughly one to two small candles. That makes the kit ideal for testing scents rather than large production runs.
Are fragrance oils the same as essential oils?
No. Fragrance oils are formulated scents, while essential oils are plant extracts. This fruity kit is designed for craft projects, not aromatherapy or internal use.
Can I mix these scents together?
Yes. They blend well with each other. Try small test batches, count your drops, and note the ratios so you can recreate a blend you like.
Are the oils vegan and phthalate-free?
Yes. Azlok lists this kit as vegan, phthalate-free and paraben-free.
