Lavender Fragrance Oil
Choose a Variant

Imagine a summer meadow drenched in the morning sunlight, rows of lavender flowers gently shifting in a light breeze. Our Lavender fragrance oil stays true to this classic, beautiful flower, enhancing the natural aroma of lavender with notes of citrus, camphor, and eucalyptus. 

This timeless, best-selling fragrance has a place in any line, whether used on its own or as part of a blend. The revised version captures the authentic, delicate aroma of lavender with slightly stronger floral notes and less camphor. 

This fragrance oil is infused with natural essential oils, including eucalyptus, cedarwood, lavandin, clove bud, Cananga flower, pine, spike lavender, Cedrus atlantica, Nootka tree, ginger, and sweet orange.

Note: This product is available in a non-standard 15 oz size due to a higher concentration of natural oils that make it less dense. This size is equivalent to the standard 16oz bottles available for most of our other fragrance oils.

Blends well with: Almond Macaron, Garden Mint, Rosemary Sage, Lemongrass and Verbena Citronella

Alternative branding ideas: Lavender Fields, Summer in Provence 

Suggested colors: Cornflower Blue, Light Purple

We experienced a moderate amount of acceleration but no separation. Once we began stick blending a thick trace was achieved quickly but the batter did not seize. We immediately poured into the mold and it was just fluid enough that it didn’t plop into the mold. We were able to tamp the full mold on the table and smooth the surface almost completely. After 24 hours, we observed that the soap almost reached a full gel and there was no discoloration. The scent was mild. After 30 days, there was no discoloration and the scent was still mild, but had a fresh lavender aroma. Various design techniques could be used that require a thick trace. Just prepare to work quickly!

Lighter scent but very popular

This was our choice for a traditional, floral scented candle. For customers who preferred light floral scents, it was perfect! Our test candles had a blend ratio of 6-8% and the candles had a very weak scent throw; we had to increase the blend ratio to 9% per 1 lb to achieve the hot scent throw we wanted in 100% soy wax. Add at 190-192F and cool quickly and use lids to prevent evaporation and maintain a truer scent. We reordered this for our spring production!

Thanks for your review! We're so glad to hear that you've found a process that works well for you. We've found that allowing candles to cool at room temperature and leaving the lid off for the first 24 hours after the candle has been poured helps prevent aesthetic issues that can come up when heat is trapped in the container by lidding too soon. You can rest assured that fragranced wax won't lose its strength once it's been poured. We hope this tip helps and that you continue to enjoy working with this fragrance!

My customers love this scent. I've looked everywhere for a true lavender scent and finally found it!

True to life scent

This lavender is my best seller. I’ve personally sold out of this lavender in a candle over 5x since it’s inception in the spring.

Nice performance

Great CT and HT with both 444 and 464 wax. I really like the fragrance but is not quite a true, fresh lavender. More of a strong dried lavender scent. I enjoy the fragrance very much and am pleased with the performance. I would recommend wicking up one size with this FO.

Top Seller at our Sunday Market!

My daughter and I used this to create our "Lavender Haze" candle for our Katie's Box of Sunshine company and we have been selling out at the Sunday market - customers are really loving this scent! We blended this fragrance at a 12% fragrance load at 185F in coconut wax and it has been a great hit - both the CT and HT have been strong. I was surprised to see the mediocre reviews we have experienced really positive feedback from our customers.
