I am looking for a Pine and Citrus type scent. Something that smells masculine and not floral. If anyone has recommendations, they would be appreciated. Thank you :)
 
Fir needle is pretty inexpensive, and paired with lemon it might be terrific -- if it doesn't smell like floor cleaner, that is. Personally I like Spruce-Eucalyptus, although spruce prices are through the roof right now. I've made fir needle-eucalyptus and it's been a hit, though I don't like it nearly as much as with Spruce...
 
Try cold water or mountain lake, I think from WSP or BB, can't remember which. I kind of thought of Pine-Sol too though, is there a fragerence you're trying to dupe?
 
I was going to make some soap for a friend and he likes pine scents and citrus scents is not a fan of musks or florals. I believe I saw an Orange Pine Christmas scent somewhere (WSP, I think), I am trying to find other ideas also. I looked up Cold Water and Mountain Lake on the fragrance finder, and a lot of the Mountain Lake ones are a dupe of a floral Yankee Candle scent, but one from Mill Creek may have some possibilities.
 
Elements carries a Citrus Balsam and it's supposed to be good or look on Fragrance Finder.
 
one part cedarwood and one part sweet orange is one of my favorite combinations. It is a masculine fragrance.
 
Thank you all for your suggestions. I don't have a lot in essential oils yet, but I will see what I can come up with. Looks like I have a few options. I think the person I am making this for would prefer EOs over FOs, so making my own blend might be the way to go.
