Mineral Springs Fragrance Oil is a fresh, clean-smelling scent blend with green, citrusy and floral-fruity notes, made for candles, diffusers, soaps and cold-process body care. It is a liquid ranging from transparent to a light pale yellow, and Azlok offers it starting at ₹319, in packs from 100 GM up to 25 KG so both hobbyists and small businesses can buy the right quantity.
What Mineral Springs smells like
The name says a lot. This fragrance opens with a fresh, citrusy "green blast" that feels crisp and outdoorsy. As it settles, soft floral and green notes come through with a hint of fruit, and the dry-down finishes on a light musky, woody base. The overall effect is calming yet revitalising, which is why it suits spaces where you want a clean, airy mood rather than a heavy, sweet one.
- Top note: fresh, citrusy, fruity, green
- Middle note: floral and green with a little fruit
- Base note: soft, musky, light woody
How to use it
Mineral Springs is versatile across most cold-scented and heated applications. A few common ways makers use it:
- Candles: add to melted soy or paraffin wax at the recommended fragrance load (typically around 6–8%, but always test with your specific wax). Add at the correct pouring temperature and stir gently for an even scent throw.
- Reed diffusers and oil burners: blend with a diffuser base or a little carrier, or warm a few drops in a burner for a light room fragrance.
- Soaps: works in cold-process and melt-and-pour bars; run a small test batch first, as fresh green scents can behave differently in high-pH soap.
- Bath and body: the product is listed as suitable for bath bombs, scrubs, creams, lip balms, lipsticks and perfume oils, at low, tested percentages.
Because fragrance oils are concentrated, start with a small amount and increase slowly. A little goes a long way, and over-fragrancing can affect how a candle burns or how a soap sets.
Tips and safety notes
Fragrance oils are for external, scenting use — not for eating or drinking. Please keep these points in mind:
- Do not ingest. Keep away from children and pets.
- Patch-test any leave-on skin product on a small area before regular use, and always follow safe usage rates for skin applications.
- Work in a ventilated space and avoid direct contact with eyes. Wash hands after handling.
- Check compatibility before scaling up. Run a small test batch in your exact recipe, since results vary with wax type, soap base and cure time.
- Ask Azlok for the MSDS if you need safety and handling details for your production process.
Buying and storage
Azlok sells Mineral Springs Fragrance Oil in a wide range of sizes — 100 GM, 500 GM, 1 KG, 5 KG, 10 KG, 20 KG and 25 KG — so you can buy a small bottle to sample the scent or bulk quantities for a candle or soap business. It is made in India and has a shelf life of about two years when stored well.
- Store in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and heat.
- Keep the cap tightly closed to slow evaporation and protect the top notes.
- Buy a smaller pack first to confirm the scent and throw suit your project before committing to bulk.
FAQ
Can I use Mineral Springs Fragrance Oil on my skin?
Only in properly formulated products such as lotions, scrubs, balms or perfume oils, and only at safe, tested usage levels. Do a patch test first. It is not meant to be applied neat (undiluted) or ingested.
How much fragrance oil should I add to candles?
Most makers use roughly 6–8% by weight, but the right amount depends on your wax. Always follow your wax supplier's maximum load and test a small batch for scent throw and a clean burn.
What colour is the oil, and will it affect my product?
It ranges from transparent to a light pale yellow, so it should have minimal impact on the colour of most candles and soaps. If you are making pale or white products, run a test batch to be sure.
How long does it last in storage?
The shelf life is about two years when kept in a cool, dry place with the cap closed. Heat, light and air exposure can shorten this and weaken the top notes.
Is this a natural essential oil?
No. It is a fragrance oil — a blended scent designed for candles, diffusers and cosmetic applications — not a single-plant essential oil.
