Fragrance Oils

Hi There,

What is the most amount of fragrance oil I can add to 500g of M&P base?

Thanks

Fragrance is added at the rate of 1-2% of base.Which works out to 5-10mls per 500 gms

Thanks so much. Is 2% the absolute max i can add?

Thanks

I have pushed it a little higher for a FO that isn't very strong,but it does effect your soap and potentially your skin if you add too much ,most oil suppliers give you a recommended and maximum usage, 5% seems to be the absolute maximum you can use but check your suppliers recommendations.
