Product Notice, January 9, 2024: This product has been discontinued due to low sales. We recommend a blend of Leather, Fireside, and Smoked Oud to achieve a similar fragrance.

Suede and Smoke fragrance oil evokes an atmosphere of relaxing with an after-dinner cordial in an old fashioned smoking room with worn leather chairs and smoldering cigars. Bold notes of leather and smoke make this a great option for sensual or masculine candle lines. Hints of amyris, musk, and moss complement the smokiness of this intensely earthy fragrance.

Whether used on its own or as a luxurious, smoky complement in a custom blend, Suede and Smoke will capture your imagination.

This fragrance is infused with natural essential oils, including cedarwood, patchouli, labdanum, and pine.

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: Caribbean Teakwood, Moroccan Cashmere

Alternative branding ideas: Cigar Club, Smoking Jacket, Charcoal Suede, Embers and Oak, Leather and Char

Suggested colors: Navy, Grey

We did not experience any acceleration or separation. This fragrance was easy to work with and was slow to come to a light trace. After 24 hours we observed some fragrance pooling on the surface, which we blotted away before unmolding. The soap block had a beige and purple swirl discoloration and when we cut the bars the center remained a light yellow shade. We found a small golf ball sized area where the soap started to gel. The scent was quite strong but not as intense as the out of bottle character of the fragrance. After 30 days the soap had discolored to a purplish brown. The scent was very strong with a nice balance of leather notes and subtle smokiness.

NO! Please bring it back!!

I have a couple clients that I have worked with very hard to make the perfect recipes for when it comes to specialized candles and THIS is a major part of that!
PLEASE don't make me have to figure out the mixture of 3 other scents just to achieve this one.
It's an amazing scent! Please oh please bring it back!!

Would prefer to use one FO than several

Oh dear, just as I thought I'd found a candle concept that would work perfectly with the small bottle of suede and smoke I've been hanging onto forever as a tester, I see that it is discontinued. I already regularly work with Fireside and Smoked Oud, and don't want to duplicate my formula for this new concept. The thing about suede and smoke is that it is kind of sweet while still retaining that dusky smoky scent. I find Fireside difficult to work with because the hot throw is really quite weak on its own. I don't think a combo of Fireside and Leather is going to re-achieve what I was hoping for out of the single FO of Suede and Smoke.

Please Bring This Back! :(

Oh no! Suede and Smoke is one of my favorite scents and a key ingredient in our best-selling candles! I've tried all other variations suggested, but none come close to this scent. Please, please, please bring back if at all possible :(
