Red Rose Fragrance Oil is a concentrated, cosmetic-grade scent that captures the sweet, floral aroma of fresh rose petals with a soft earthy and vanilla dry-down. It is designed for external use only in candles, soaps, bath bombs, scrubs, creams and perfume oils — not for eating or drinking. Azlok offers it from a 100 gm bottle up to bulk 20 kg packs, starting at ₹359.
What Red Rose Fragrance Oil smells like
This is a warm, romantic rose rather than a sharp or synthetic one. The opening reads as fresh rose petals, layered with fruity, spicy and honey-like hints. As it settles, you get an earthy, resinous base and a smooth vanilla finish that lingers pleasantly. It leaves a soft, elegant trail without being overpowering, which is why rose is such a popular choice for gifting products.
Common uses for makers
Because it is a fragrance oil (not an essential oil), it is stable and works across many DIY applications:
- Candles: soy, beeswax and paraffin blends carry rose beautifully.
- Cold and melt-and-pour soaps: adds a lasting floral note.
- Bath bombs and bath salts: a little goes a long way.
- Body and facial scrubs, creams and lotions: for a spa-like finish.
- Lip balms and lipsticks: as a scent component only.
- Perfume oils and roll-ons: diluted in a carrier or perfumer's base.
- Room diffuser blends and reed diffusers.
How to use it: usage rates
Fragrance oils are strong, so measure by weight and start low. As general starting points:
- Candles: roughly 6–10% of your wax weight, added at the correct pouring temperature for your wax.
- Soap: around 2–3% of the total batch weight; always do a small test batch first.
- Lotions, creams and scrubs: about 0.5–1%.
- Bath bombs: a few grams per kilo of dry mix is usually enough.
Blend it in thoroughly and evenly. If you are making a leave-on skincare product, patch-test the finished item on your inner arm and wait 24 hours before regular use.
Safety notes worth reading
This oil is meant for external use only. Please keep these points in mind:
- Do not consume it and do not use it as a food flavouring — it is a fragrance oil, not an edible extract.
- Keep it away from the eyes; it can irritate. Rinse with plenty of water if contact happens.
- Always dilute before applying to skin; never use it neat.
- Patch-test new formulations, especially for sensitive skin.
- Keep out of reach of children and pets.
- Work in a well-ventilated space and follow the usage percentages recommended for each product type.
If you sell finished products, ask for the COA, MSDS and allergen documentation so you can label responsibly.
Buying and storage tips
Choose your pack size by how much you actually make. A 100 gm bottle is ideal for testing recipes or small hobby batches, while the 500 gm, 1 kg and larger sizes suit regular sellers and small businesses. Buying in bulk lowers your per-gram cost, but only if you will use it within the shelf life.
Store the bottle tightly closed in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and heat. Kept well, Red Rose Fragrance Oil has a shelf life of about two years. Keep it away from open flames until it is safely blended into your product. Azlok packs the oil as per requirement, so the quantity you order arrives ready to work with.
FAQ
Can I apply Red Rose Fragrance Oil directly on my skin?
No. It is a concentrated fragrance oil and should be diluted into a suitable base such as a lotion, carrier oil or perfume blend at the recommended percentage, then patch-tested before use.
Is it the same as rose essential oil?
No. A fragrance oil is a scent formulation designed for candles, soaps and cosmetics, while an essential oil is steam-distilled from the plant. They smell similar but are used differently and are not interchangeable.
How much should I add to candles?
A good starting range is about 6–10% of your wax weight, added at the temperature your specific wax recommends. Test a small batch to find the throw you like.
Can I use it in food or lip products that are eaten?
Use it only as a scent in lip balms and lipsticks, and never for anything meant to be swallowed. This oil is strictly for external use.
How long does it last once opened?
Stored in a cool, dry place with the cap tightly closed, it stays good for roughly two years. Keep it away from sunlight and heat to preserve the aroma.
