One of our most popular fragrances, Black Sea has been carefully revised as a CandleScience Clean Scent™. Salty oceanic accords combine with dark musk and sandalwood to fill your space with this balanced, airy scent. Geographically bridging modern-day Europe and Asia, the Black Sea was the end of the known world to ancient civilizations. Today, its shadowy waters are even rumored to hide the lost city of Atlantis. Hints of its mystery and intrigue combine to inspire this scent’s seductive aroma. Black Sea is an ideal year round scent that makes an excellent addition to your high-end candle line, as well as luxury soaps, sugar scrubs, and lotions.

This fragrance is infused with essential oils, including sweet orange, mandarin, cinnamon bark, eucalyptus, clove leaf, clove bud, pine, grapefruit, mentha leaf, cumin, and wheatgerm.

Blends well with: Lavender Driftwood, Orange Pomander, Pistachio Meringue, Velvet Vanilla, Bohemian Rose

Alternative branding ideas: Atlantis, Mystical Waters

Suggested colors: Black, Blue

Love this scent just wished it was diffuser safe
Tara 2024-11-26

Why is this not wood diffuser safe? I love this scent and was wondering why it wasn’t diffuser safe but room and linen spray safe.

Hey Tara! Thanks so much for your review. We typically recommend fragrances for different applications based on the amount most makers prefer to use and whether IFRA allows that much fragrance to be used in that application. For reed diffusers, for example, a lot of makers find 10-25% to be best but Black Sea has a maximum usage limit of 3.75% in diffusers. If you'd like to test that lower fragrance load, we have the IFRA certificate available above but we'd love to take a look at this one-on-one with you. A member of our Customer Support team will be reaching out via email today.

My New Favorite!

I LOVE this scent! Concerned about the hot throw after reading some of the reviews, but excited to try. I only wish it was allowed as a diffuser - this would smell so good in my car! I have tested this in carpet deodorizer and it is the best!! Hubby loves it to. Thank you Candlescience!

I was worried even after the good reviews but after making a batch of CP soap it smells wonderful. I also rubbed some in on my skin and smelled amazing for hours!

Excellent Scent - Manly, breezy, complex
Lauren 2024-10-13

I absolutely loved this scent because it was definitely a more masculine version of a sea-breeze scent. I can't stop sniffing the candles I made with it. The only problem is that the hot throw was pretty weak. Like I couldn't smell it when lit at all and neither could anyone I asked.

Would say this is probably better as a diffuser scent!

Very complex fragrance. I needed a more masculine fragrance to add to my line and this did it!
