Aromas/Scents are created with feedback from multiple sources. They are as accurate as possible, but are the culmination of opinions. Opinions may vary.
As you can imagine, it is not possible for us to test every aroma with every known or unknown recipe or formulation.
Our testing with our aromas against essential oils show them to generally need to be used at the same percentage as formulations using essential oils. Sometimes even less is needed.
However, many of the scents have no essential oil equivalent to test against.
Also floral and citrus scents, like essential oils, tend to dissipate more easily.
This is especially true in soap formulations if they have no anchor note to help hold them.
The feedback we have gotten from our customers is very positive and we are always evaluating them and their performance, especially from customers utilizing both hot and cold processed soap.
Scent is very subjective and our opinion and the opinions of other customers may or may not be the same as yours.
Always do at least one small test batch as part of your research and development.
This should be done with any product you are making to assess how strong you feel the scent throw is before making a large batch and then make adjustments accordingly.

Botanical waters are a Hybrid between a Plant Extract and a Hydrosol or Hydrolat.
Plant matter, water, and an All-Natural preservative system.
Their color can range from almost clear to dark in color depending on the amount of natural pigment in the plant material.
Although they are not intended for use as an aromatherapy component, many of them have wonderful and unique aromas.
The primary use for these botanical waters is to impart their botanical phytochemical components into a formulation.
They can be used as a stand-alone ingredient such as a body mist or blended into formulations as a water-based ingredient.
Because each Botanical Water is unique, it is strongly recommended you order a small quantity for R & D purposes prior to ordering bulk quantities.
Due to the degradation that occurs when natural products are exposed to light, all products should be stored and sold in opaque containers.
As you can imagine, it is not possible for us to test every aroma with every known or unknown recipe or formulation. Our testing with our aromas against essential oils show them to generally need to be used at the same percentage as formulations using essential oils. Sometimes even less is needed. However, many of the scents have no essential oil equivalent to test against. Also floral and citrus scents, like essential oils, tend to dissipate more easily. This is especially true in soap formulations if they have no anchor note to help hold them.
The feedback we have gotten from our customers is very positive and we are always evaluating them and their performance, especially from customers utilizing both hot and cold processed soap. Scent is very subjective and our opinion and the opinions of other customers may or may not be the same as yours. Always do at least one small test batch as part of your research and development. This should be done with any product you are making to assess how strong you feel the scent throw is before making a large batch and then make adjustments accordingly.

The flowers are pale to bright yellow, rarely orange or reddish, with four ribbon-shaped petals 10–20 mm long and four short stamens, and grow in clusters; flowering begins in about mid-fall and continues until late fall. The fruit is a hard woody capsule 10–14 mm long, which splits explosively at the apex at maturity one year after pollination, ejecting the two shiny black seeds up to 10 m distant from the parent plant.It is used in great quantities as an astringent skin cleanser, in body lotions, aftershaves, massage liquids, etc.

Hemp Seed Extract (Cannabis sativa) is an annual herbaceous flowering plant indigenous to eastern Asia but now of cosmopolitan distribution due to widespread cultivation. It has been cultivated throughout recorded history, used as a source of industrial fiber, seed oil, food, recreation, religious and spiritual moods and medicine. Each part of the plant is harvested differently, depending on the purpose of its use.
Hemp Seed Oil does not contain mind or mood-altering THC. It is different from CBD which is extracted from the leaves and flowers.
Cosmetic Uses: Hemp Seed Oil has the ability to soothe and tired, stressed-out skin. It also decreases inflammation and irritation and provides relief for discomfort related to certain skin conditions. It is often recommended by dermatologists as an alternative solution for acne, psoriasis, eczema, and atopic dermatitis as it promotes the growth of new healthy skin cells.
Hemp Seed Oil rejuvenates and nourishes tight or dry skin and prevents flakiness and itchiness. When used on the face, it controls oil production to moisturize without clogging pores. It helps to restore the skin barrier and retain moisture. Hemp Seed Oil is high in the antioxidants Vitamin A, C, E, and F and fatty acids that strengthens the outer layer of the skin so it can preserve water.
This keeps skin looking and feeling firmer and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
Hemp Seed Oil repairs the skin barrier and protects against environmental aggressors that damage the skin and cause premature aging, such as sunlight, radiation, pollution, cigarette smoke, and exposure to extreme hot and cold temperatures.
Poppy Seed Extract (Papaver somniferum).Poppy seed is an oil seed obtained from the poppy. The tiny kidney-shaped seeds have been harvested from dried seed pods by various civilizations for thousands of years. The seeds are used whole or ground into meal as an ingredient in many foods – especially in pastry and bread – and they are pressed to yield poppy seed oil.
Only after they reach their maximum solubility in water, do they start to collect in a separate layer on the surface of the water (the essential oil). Many of the water-soluble plant compounds and some of the oil-soluble compounds wind up in the distillation water.
During distillation, componentsof the plant are carried over by the steam and found in the waterleft when the steam condenses. Hydrosols should contain bothmicroscopic particles of essential oil as well as beneficial plantcompounds that are water-soluble and thus not present in essentialoils.
Their aroma is generally, but not always, similar to that of the essential oil, but the aroma is usually much more subtle. Hydrosols contain small amounts of essential oil.
They also contain water-soluble components of the plant material that may not be present in the essential oil. The aroma, therefore, may differ somewhat from the plant's essential oil.
Some hydrosols do smell surprisingly different from the essential oil.
Generally, Hydrosolsare neutral to slightly acidic, and are a good match
for the skin’snatural pH.
Hydrosols are less volatile than essential oils, so they can be used for a wide variety of purposes without being diluted.
Hydrosols can be used as:
