Cozy Carnival Fragrance Oil

What it smells like and what it does in a base

The ultimate sweet escape on a chilly autumn day. What do we all head straight for at a fall festival? Funnel cakes and cotton candy — but this fragrance goes deeper than the classics, blended with rich pumpkin spice and toasted marshmallow for a festive autumn twist as you wander the carnival under the twinkling lights.

For the formulator, this is the sweetest oil in the collection and the most demanding. Vanillin is the highest in the set at ~10%, so any light base will brown, and it is not rated for cold process soap. The IFRA certificate is also the tightest: 1.485% across most skin categories and 0.606% for body sprays. That ceiling is below our base allowance for body sprays, scrubs and bath products.

Formulator's shorthand: spectacular in the right base, but read the usage section before you formulate.

Sweater Weather

Seven scents for the season when the only plan is a blanket, a book and nowhere to be. Mornings on the porch, afternoons in bed, evenings off the clock — cosy gourmands, one spiced chai and one autumn floral.

Behavior in base

The four things that go wrong, and whether they will here

DiscolorationExpected — pronounced~10% vanillin, among the highest we stock. White and clear bases will brown. Use a Vanilla Stabilizer, or design in tan, caramel or cocoa.
Flashpoint200 °F / 93 °CHigh, with a comfortable margin over a melt-and-pour pour around 140 °F.
Cold process soapNot recommendedNot rated for cold process. Use melt and pour or a liquid soap base instead.
Candles & waxNot yet ratedNot rated for wax. IFRA allows up to 100% in candles, but burn performance has not been tested.

How much to use

Two different limits apply. Always use the lower one.

Pure & undiluted

Why our oils behave differently from most

Many suppliers sell fragrance oils cut with carrier oils or diluents to reduce cost. Ours are concentrated, pure, undiluted and cosmetic grade. A concentrated oil means a lower fragrance load per batch — a little goes a long way, and your cost per unit drops even when the per-ounce price does not.

Product compatibility is not the responsibility of Essentials By Catalina, Inc. We strongly advise sampling before committing to larger quantities so you can evaluate performance, compatibility and safety in your own formulation. Keep all products out of children's reach.
