Product Notice: This fragrance has been retired. However, we have two great alternatives we think you’ll love: Tonka and Oud or Santal and Coconut.

Mahogany Shea fragrance oil wraps you in a warm blanket of earthy woods and creamy shea. A top note of sweet almond gives way to the slight nutty aromas of shea and coconut. Natural woody notes of sandalwood and cedar are smoothed out with light musk and tonka bean base notes. The final result is a fragrance that’s warm, cozy, and beautiful all year round.

Create soft, inviting candles and reed diffusers for any space with this scent. Mahogany Shea is also an exceptionally soothing fragrance in soaps, lotions, and body care creations.

This fragrance is infused with natural essential oils, including cedarwood, cedar leaf, patchouli, and olibanum.

Blends well with: Lavender, Mango and Coconut Milk, Tonka and Oud, Spiced Honey and Tonka, Blood Orange, Golden Hour

Alternative branding ideas: Oatmeal Shea, Sandalwood and Shea, White Musk and Cedar

Suggested colors: Ivory

Cold Process Soap Performance

Acceleration
Slight
Discoloration
Light Yellow
Separation
None

Lye Water Temperature 111ºF (43.9°C)
Oil Temperature 113ºF (45°C)

We experienced a very slight acceleration but no separation. Once we added the lye water to the fragranced oils and hand stirred a few times, a light emulsion was created. Based on this we expected more acceleration with the stick blender but it very slowly came to a light trace; we continued to stick blend to a medium trace. The batter stayed nice and fluid and did not start to thicken as we poured into the mold. Overall the fragrance was easy to work with, but we would recommend bringing your batter to a very light trace before adding fragrance to avoid a possible false trace. After 24 hours the soap had discolored a light tan shade and almost reached a full gel. We observed a large amount of glycerin rivers throughout the bars which gave them a very unique look. The scent was nice and strong with a slightly nutty character. After 30 days the soap had discolored to a pale yellow shade and the scent was subtle but had a sweet nutty character that is very pleasant.

Disappointed 2024-07-25

The replacements are nothing close to what mahogany shea is, and as my best selling candle saying i am disappointed does not even begin to cover it. So sad and disappointing.. now to try and order as much as i can afford to save my line

In Tears

As I get ready for my fall/ holiday/winter line, I'm in tears. To find out that one of not only my personal favorite scents but my customers as well, will no longer be available.

First, you change the peach, then the palo santo, now Mahogany Shea. I have to redesign my product line to accommodate changes that you are doing seemingly all of the time. I had to discontinue one of my men's body oil scents because the Palo Santo was not the scent to complement.

Then I have to cancel the fragrance. Recreate another one only to fear Candlesciece will change it to make it "clean." I have noticed a lot of other fragrances with two or three stars that are still there that should have been pulled long ago, yet they are still there.

I don't know what criteria you are using to recreate fragrance, but clearly, it is not for the 2 or 3 ones, but for ones that are being purchased multiple times from various people for their projects

I would have to agree with some of the reviews; this is becoming a hassel!

This one hurts...
Kim C 2024-07-22

I have been able to persuade my customers to give other fragrances a try after a favorite has been discontinued, but this one has been the worst; I actually lost several customers behind this one and Lush Linen.

Customer service was extremely helpful and gracious enough to help try to recreate the blend with other fragrances so that I didn't lose a client too, but there is no replacing it. I'm grateful but the little I've stockpiled is only going to sustain me for a couple months...if that. My folks LOVE this scent! You know it's good when teenage boys are asking for it for their room spray...it's a no-brainer.

It's so unfortunate that we don't know what's coming to the chopping block next. My customers are nervous and I am too! If a fragrance as amazing as this and Lush Linen can go...(shrug)

DISCONTINUED??

This scent is a staple for my line. It's one of my best seller when mixed. I hope you reconsider discontinuing.
As a staple in the clean candle world (USA) I think you guys should reconsider discontinuing your scents every other month because it's breaking our trust in you as a supplier.
