Our Margarita fragrance oil is an energizing burst of sweet, salty, and tart citrus with a shot of tequila. Immerse yourself in the feeling of a sizzling hot day with fresh squeezed lime, coarse sea salt, and ozonic airy top notes. Middle notes of tropical guava and juicy orange serve as the orange liqueur part of the margarita, while the base notes of sugar and agave nectar smooth out the tequila. Candles and wax melts made with Margarita will transport you to a poolside cabana. This scent is ideal for body care products since the tart sweetness makes for a vitalizing, citrusy clean feel. Exfoliating scrubs, soaps, and foaming bath butters are fun, refreshing additions to any washroom or kitchen.

This fragrance is infused with natural essential oils, including lemongrass, petitgrain, and clove leaf.

Blends well with: Strawberry Guava, Peach Nectar

Alternative branding ideas: Sea Salt and Lime

Suggested colors: Any shade of green

We did not experience any acceleration, but there was a significant amount of separation of the oils and water without ricing. This fragrance will be tricky to work with and will take some patience. We recommend keeping a backup stick blender handy. The batter took an extended amount of time to come to a light trace, and once the stick blender stopped it separated. We would blend for 2-3 minutes and then hand stir to give the stick blender a break. When we notice the batter came to what we thought was a very thick trace we stopped blending. After a gentle stir, the batter thinned back to a soupy-consistency. We repeated this process three times before it finally held at a medium trace with no separation. The batter was easy to manipulate, did not stiffen, and poured into the mold well. After 24 hours, the scent was strong, and there was no discoloration. We did observe signs of a partial gel. After the cure, the soap was a light yellow shade, and the scent was strong. While this fragrance can be problematic to work with, the finished bars look great and smell amazing.

*Note - This fragrance was tested at a 5% fragrance load. With the release of IFRAs 49th Amendment this fragrance can now be used at 4.63% to remain IFRA compliant.

This is an absolute favorite of mine :(

I purchased this oil quite some time ago and it got lost in the back of my curing cabinet. Found it out 2 weeks ago, made a batch of candles and they were absolutely amazing! They sold so fast that I had to keep one back for myself. I just came on to buy more of this oil, only to see that it's been discontinued :(
PLEASE tell me you can do a special order? I am so sad about this. I already have customers asking for more.
