candlebean Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I haven't gotten my roses from the Co-Op yet, but was wondering something for those of you that already make them...If you put one drop of FO on a rose, how long does it last before you have to re-scent them? I wanted to sell small bottles of refresher oil with them, but was just curious about this.TIA! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Candle Man Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 You can state to the customer not to add more than one drop at a time but they may think it's not enough scent and add more. Adding to much FO will cause the glue to weaken and make the rose fall apart.Search for some FO modifier from candle suppliers, it will make FO water based. Then that refresher would be safer for the wooden roses.Here is just one place to get it but there are others http://www.chemistrystore.com/fragrancemodifier.htmAbout FO Modifier...Fragrance Oil Modifier enables you to take most any Essential Oil or Fragrance Oil and blend them with water while remaining clear. You can also use this product to blend EO's or FO's into you water based shampoo's, lotions, soaps and linen waters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candlebean Posted January 29, 2007 Author Share Posted January 29, 2007 I know that adding too much oil will make it fall apart, I'm just asking to see if anyone out there has been making them long enought to know how long 1 drop will last, so that when I am selling them, I can tell people so that they don't add too much.

Rebecca Posted January 29, 2007 Share Posted January 29, 2007 I think in another thread (which I can't find..lol) someone said that the scent seems to last about 7-10 days before they felt it needed a boost.HTH:grin2: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
