Baby Powder Essential Oil Scent Blend

by Pelin

I make CP soaps. I'm looking for an essential oil scent blend that smells like baby powder. Do you have a combination of essential oils that would result in a similar blend? Thanks...

p.s. I know frangrance oils of a similar scent exist, but I'm looking for one with essential oils.

Answer:

I don't have a recipe but I would try various combinations of rose, vanilla, jasmine and ylang essential oils. The florals are all soft and the addition of vanilla should add the "powder-like" scent.

You probably won't get your classic baby powder scent but you might come up with something even better...especially since it would be all natural.

One thing to note, with the addition of vanilla, the soap will discolour. There's no way around this and you will find that most baby powder fragrances will discolour soap as well.

Good luck,
Cathy
