Ocean Breeze Fragrance Oil: A Fresh Marine Scent for Soaps, Candles and Skincare

Ocean Breeze Fragrance Oil is a ready-to-use scent that captures fresh sea air with citrus and light florals, ideal for candles, soaps, bath bombs and body products. Add a small measured amount to your base, blend well, and you get a clean, calming, spa-like aroma without any colour changes to worry about in most applications.

This is a fragrance oil, not an essential oil. That means it is a blended aroma compound made for crafting, giving you a consistent scent from batch to batch. The Azlok blend is a clear to pale liquid (colourless to dark yellow) with a fresh marine, ozonic, citrus and green floral character that settles into a soft musky-woody finish.

What Ocean Breeze smells like

The scent opens bright and airy, then softens as it dries down. In perfumer's terms:

• Top notes: bergamot, lemon, lime, marine accord and sea breeze
• Middle notes: lily of the valley and lavender
• Base notes: musk and cedarwood

The overall impression is clean and refreshing rather than sweet — think of a coastal morning with a light woody trail. It suits both men's and unisex products.

Where you can use it

Ocean Breeze is a versatile fragrance oil that works across a wide range of homemade and small-batch products:

• Candles: soy, beeswax and paraffin blends
• Soaps: melt-and-pour and cold-process bars
• Bath bombs and shower steamers
• Facial and body scrubs
• Creams, lotions and body butters
• Perfume oils and roll-ons
• Incense sticks and reed diffusers
• Lipsticks and balms (as a fragrance component)

How to use it

Fragrance oils are strong, so a little goes a long way. Start conservatively and adjust to your preference. General guidance:

1. Candles: around 6-10% of the wax weight. For 100 g of wax, that is roughly 6-10 g of fragrance. Add at the correct temperature for your wax and stir thoroughly before pouring.
2. Cold-process soap: usually 2-4% of oil weight. Always check how a marine or floral oil behaves at trace, as some can speed up thickening.
3. Melt-and-pour soap: about 1.5-3%, added once the base has cooled slightly.
4. Lotions, creams and scrubs: 0.5-1%, blended into the cooled emulsion.
5. Perfume and roll-on oils: dilute in a carrier at 10-20% depending on strength wanted.

These are starting points. Because different bases and wicks behave differently, run a small test batch and let it cure before judging the final throw and colour.

Safety notes

Fragrance oils are for external use in finished products only. Please keep these in mind:

• Do not ingest and do not apply undiluted to skin.
• Patch-test any leave-on skincare product before regular use.
• Work in a ventilated space and avoid contact with eyes.
• Keep away from children and pets.
• Store away from open flames; fragrance oils are flammable.
• Follow recommended usage rates and refer to the MSDS, COA and allergen information for your safe-usage limits in each product type.

FAQ

Is Ocean Breeze Fragrance Oil the same as an essential oil?

No. It is a crafted fragrance blend designed for consistent scent in candles and body products, not a single-plant essential oil. It is meant for making finished goods, not for internal use.

Can I use it directly on my skin?

Not undiluted. Blend it into a properly formulated product such as a lotion, scrub or diluted perfume oil at the recommended rate, and patch-test before regular use.

Will it change the colour of my soap or candle?

The oil ranges from colourless to a dark yellow, so it may add a slight tint in pale bases. Test a small batch first if colour matters for your product.

How much should I add to candles?

A common range is 6-10% of the wax weight. Start lower, cure the candle, then adjust for a stronger scent throw if needed.

How long does it last once opened?

Roughly two years when kept sealed in a cool, dry place away from sunlight. Tightly capping the bottle helps preserve the fresh citrus top notes.
