The scent

Warming notes of ginger, cinnamon, and clove blend beautifully with creamy buttercream and smooth vanilla, all resting on a rich, moist cake base. Sweet, spicy, and irresistibly comforting, this fragrance evokes the joy of homemade baking and the warmth of seasonal family traditions. Equally suited to cosy winter nights or sunny spring mornings, it transitions effortlessly into year-round bakery and comfort-themed collections.

How much Carrot Cake fragrance oil do I need for a candle?

How much Carrot Cake should I use in wax melts?

Use 5–10% – that’s 5–10g of fragrance oil for every 100g of finished melts. Check the maximum your wax can hold.

Can I use Carrot Cake in a reed diffuser?

Yes. Use 15–25% Carrot Cake in a reed diffuser base such as Augeo Clean Multi. The IFRA maximum is 25.78%. Ready-made reed diffuser CLP labels and an SDS are in the documents above.

Can I use Carrot Cake in soap, lotion or perfume?

  • Body lotion: yes – 0.5–1.5% (IFRA maximum 3.36%)
  • Face cream: yes – 0.1–0.5% (IFRA maximum 2.21%)
  • Perfume: yes – 5–13.15% (IFRA maximum 13.15%)

Soap, lotion and perfume are cosmetics, so each one needs a safety assessment (CPSR) before you sell it.

Is Carrot Cake fragrance oil hazardous?

Undiluted, Carrot Cake is classified under GB CLP with the signal word Warning:

  • H317 May cause an allergic skin reaction.
  • H319 Causes serious eye irritation.
  • H412 Harmful to aquatic life with long lasting effects.

Candles, wax melts and diffusers you make with it may need their own CLP label. Full details are in the Safety Data Sheet.

Is Carrot Cake fragrance oil flammable?

No. Its flash point is >100°C, so it isn’t classified as flammable. Like any fragrance oil, keep it away from naked flames.

Will Carrot Cake discolour my wax?

It may. Carrot Cake contains vanillin (5.2%), which can turn wax, soap and other bases cream to brown over time. Test before bulk pouring – see our vanillin guide.

Is there a CLP label for Carrot Cake?

Yes. Our free CLP label creator makes a ready-to-print label for candles and wax melts made with Carrot Cake, and for reed diffusers. Safety Data Sheets, IFRA certificates and label files are in the documents above.

Are your fragrance oils vegan?

Yes. All are 100% vegan with no animal-derived ingredients.

Can I use Carrot Cake in an electric diffuser or oil burner?

Yes.

  • Electric water diffusers (ultrasonic or humidifier style) – fill the tank with water to the line, then add 3–5 drops per 100ml of water. Start low and add more to taste.
  • Oil burners – mix 50/50 with dipropylene glycol (DPG), or add a few drops to water in the well.

Important – look after your diffuser:

  • Fragrance oils are concentrated, and some plastics used in diffuser tanks can soften, cloud or crack if oil is left sitting in them. This depends on the plastic the diffuser is made from. It happens with any concentrated fragrance or essential oil, not just ours.
  • Empty the tank when you’ve finished. Don’t leave water and oil sitting in it between uses.
  • Rinse and wipe the tank every few uses, as fragrance oils can leave a film.
  • Check your diffuser’s instructions to make sure it is suitable for fragrance oils. If it says essential oils only, or doesn’t say, ask the maker before using it.

How do I use the 100ml bottles?

They include a blind plug to prevent leaks in transit. Either pierce the centre with a pin or biro to use it as a dropper, or remove the stopper, pour, and replace the plug.
