Azlok Mix Fruit Fragrance Oil is a light yellow, ready-to-use scent oil that layers juicy fruits like apple, peach, banana, pineapple and melon over bright citrus notes of orange, grapefruit, pomelo and tangerine. It is made for external DIY use in candles, soaps, bath bombs, scrubs, creams and perfume oils, and a 100 GM bottle starts at ₹349.
What Mix Fruit Fragrance Oil smells like
Think of a fruit basket on a summer morning. The scent opens with crisp, tangy citrus and tropical sweetness, settles into soft strawberry, raspberry, peach and apricot with a hint of rose and muguet, and finishes on a warm base of musk, vanilla and candy sugar. The overall aroma is mildly earthy, sweet and unmistakably fruity, which makes it a crowd-pleaser rather than a niche note.
Where you can use it
This is a versatile blend that works across cold-process and melt-and-pour projects. Common uses include:
- Candles: soy, beeswax or paraffin container and pillar candles.
- Soaps: melt-and-pour bars, cold-process soaps and liquid handwash.
- Bath and body: bath bombs, body and facial scrubs, lotions and creams.
- Lip products: lip balms and tinted lip formulations meant for external wear.
- Perfume oils: roll-ons and body mists when diluted in a carrier.
How to use it correctly
Fragrance oils are concentrated, so a little goes a long way. Always follow the recipe or base manufacturer's recommended fragrance load rather than pouring by eye.
- Candles: most waxes hold roughly 6–10% fragrance. Add the oil once the melted wax cools to the temperature your wax recommends (often around 60–70°C for soy), stir gently for about two minutes, then pour.
- Soaps and bath bombs: use around 1–3% of the total batch weight. Add at light trace in cold-process soap; mix in quickly for bath bombs to avoid premature fizzing.
- Lotions, creams and scrubs: keep fragrance under 1% and stir in during the cool-down phase.
- Perfume oils: dilute in a skin-safe carrier before applying, and patch-test first.
Because scent throw varies by base and formula, make a small test batch before committing to a large one.
Safety notes worth reading
This oil is meant for external use only. A few sensible precautions:
- Do not consume it and do not add it to food or drink.
- Keep it away from eyes and rinse well if contact occurs, as it can irritate.
- Patch-test any leave-on skin product on your inner arm before regular use.
- Work in a ventilated space and wipe up spills promptly.
- Store out of reach of children and pets.
If you sell your finished products, check the supplied MSDS and any allergen information and stick to industry-recommended usage rates.
Buying and storage tips
Azlok offers this fragrance oil in sizes from 100 GM up to 25 KG, so hobbyists can start small and small businesses can scale up without switching suppliers. For consistent results across batches, buy a single larger pack rather than several small ones, since scent can shift subtly between production lots.
Store the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Kept well, it has a shelf life of about two years. If the colour deepens slightly over time, that is normal for fruit and citrus blends and does not usually affect performance in your recipes.
FAQ
Can I apply Mix Fruit Fragrance Oil directly on my skin?
Not undiluted. It is a concentrated fragrance oil for external use. For body applications, blend it into a skin-safe base such as a carrier oil, lotion or perfume base at a low percentage and patch-test first.
How much should I use in candles?
Most waxes accept about 6–10% fragrance by weight. Start near the lower end, add it at your wax's recommended temperature, stir well, and adjust in future batches based on the scent throw you get.
Is it safe for bath bombs and scrubs?
Yes, when used at around 1–3% of the batch and mixed in properly. Keep it away from the eyes and do not use it in products intended to be swallowed.
What is the shelf life and how should I store it?
It lasts roughly two years when stored in a cool, dry place away from sunlight and heat, with the cap kept tightly closed.
Does the scent last in finished products?
Scent throw depends on your base, fragrance load and formulation. The musk and vanilla base notes help the fruity top notes linger, but always run a small test batch to check longevity before scaling up.
