fragrance oil tester

What paper product would be the best for sampling the fragrance oils and what size of dropper? THANKS IN ADVANCE for all your help;

Can you be a little more specific? I'm not sure exactly what you're asking. Of course, I haven't had my second cup of coffee yet!

For people to smell the different fragrance oils I have I want them to put them on a piece of paper. What would be the best for that? And if they want to mix oils they need some kind of material/paper to do that. THANKS

OH! Forgive me...I'm foggy today. The only experience I have doing this was when a customer asked for a sandlewood/jasmine combination. I used those cotton pads you get in the cosmetic aisle of stores. I put different ratios on each pad and put them in individual snack-sized Baggies. I used little droppers, the kind that fit the really small brown glass bottles. I don't know if that's what you're looking for, but it worked in that case. But...what about those paper "sticks" they use at perfume counters? They seem to hold scent really well. Don't have a clue where you'd get them, but you could ask someone at a perfume counter. They'd look a heck-of-a-lot more professional than cotton in a Baggie!

Who will be sniffing & where would this be taking place?

I would do a drop on a cotton ball inside a plastic zip bag.

I use the strips.

BUT keep in mind that fragrances don't necessarily smell the same straight from the bottle and in soap.
