heirloomoriginals Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Start out with 50/50 and then adjust from there. Only you know what you are looking for!If you are looking for an already mixed on, BW has a great one that is all lime and coconut. And it is on sale!!! It rocks in soap, bath and body, and candles.http://www.backwoodsfragrancesupply.com/index.php?main_page=product_info&products_id=332Steph Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heirloomoriginals Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Dee, I know it says about all those other scents, but maybe my sniffer just smells the coconut and lime. It is a very nice clean scent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cissy Posted March 24, 2008 Share Posted March 24, 2008 Lime is a much more potent FO than coconut, so I would start out at 25% lime and 75% coconut or you might not be able to smell the coconut as well as you wish. It all depends on which you want to be the predominent scent. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carmellajarvis Posted September 14, 2008 Share Posted September 14, 2008 My lime is from BC and my coconut is from LS. My lime is not as strong as my coconut. I mix my own fragrance oils, but I think from here on out, I will purchase them already mixed. I think it's easier to just buy pre-mixed.

Candybee Posted September 15, 2008 Share Posted September 15, 2008 I mix my own oils and often find I like my own mixes better. Straight lime and straight coconut are great mixed together and I would start out with a sample sniffy at 50/50 and adjust from there.
