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.

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!

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.

Bring back the old version!

I've previously purchased the old version before the new revised version. The old one smelled just like real lavender and the new one not so much. Until I find a new one with more authentic smell I will continue to use this bottle and add lavender essential oil to boost the lavender I'm looking for. This one is way to mild and can smell the other tones way too much than I care for.

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.

Lavender to use as blender

It's a midway point Lavender. That's how I would describe it. If you want it to smell sweeter or more floral blend with that kind of FO or EO, in order to pull the more floral/sweet scents out of this lavender. As well as any other scent category whether citrus, floral, hermal, spice, or woodsy. So I would say, its a good "blender" type of Lavender.

So I’ve tested this scent a few times, and it’s just okay. It’s not the best lavender scent, I have a couple people who like it but I’m honestly not a fan. I’m going to continue to look for a more true lavender scent. Hot throw is pretty good, but it doesn’t give a good cold throw.

True

Tried and true lavender. This is dried lavender in the sun. Not overwhelming. Not too floral. Just right!

Love this Lavender!

I am curious to know what the pervious version of lavender smelled like that everyone was so fond of.
BUT, I LOVE THIS LAVENDER. Smells just like it to me and not being able to compare it to the old version I think it’s a real hit. I visit a local lavender farm for their essential oils and products annually and spend a lot of time using it for aromatherapy. I even drink lavender tea and lemonade. I LOVE lavender and I love this FO. I’ll definitely be repurchasing this long term.

Very Authentic

I've never been the biggest lavender fan but I really like this FO. It has notes in it that I never smelled before from other lavender-fragranced items. It's probably because this FO is meant to smell more authentic. I held up a jar of dried lavender and did a smell comparison. They smelled exactly alike. I smell lavender, wood, and a lemony-citrus. The lemony-citrus is definitely stronger when compared to a Lavender FO from another supplier, but after smelling my dried lavender, I realized the Candle Science FO was more authentic. I went with the competitor FO because it had more floral notes, but Candle Science FO is more real to the actual flower. Candle Science FO, although subtle, has a good HT at 10% with my 52%/48% soy-paraffin wax and an ECO wick.

The Old Version

I prefer the old version, mixed with Bamboo Coconut. That was to die for. You could smell if from a far both CT and HT. This one is revised, and milder, I threw away an entire batch. I wish you guys would bring back the old Lavender FO.

Truly lavender
