The scent

Rainbow Drops Fragrance Oil opens with a playful burst of blackcurrant, raspberry, and juicy grape, creating an instantly bright, candy-like fruitiness that feels fun and uplifting. The heart remains sweet and vibrant with soft fruity accords, while subtle dried fruit nuances add gentle richness. As it settles, smooth musk forms a warm, comforting base that lingers beautifully. Cheerful, nostalgic, and full of colour, this fruity-sweet fragrance is perfectly suited to spring and summer collections, novelty scent ranges, and feel-good blends designed to bring playful energy to any creation.

How much Rainbow Drops fragrance oil do I need for a candle?

Use 5–10% of the candle’s total weight. For a 200g candle that’s 10–20g of Rainbow Drops (about 10–19ml). There is no IFRA limit for candles. The calculator above works it out for any size.

How much Rainbow Drops 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 Rainbow Drops in a reed diffuser?

Yes. Use 15–25% Rainbow Drops in a reed diffuser base such as Augeo Clean Multi. The IFRA maximum is 83.33%. Ready-made reed diffuser CLP labels and an SDS are in the documents above.

Can I use Rainbow Drops in soap, lotion or perfume?

  • Soap: yes – 3–6% (IFRA maximum 33.6%)
  • Body lotion: yes – 0.5–1.5% (IFRA maximum 4.4%)
  • Face cream: yes – 0.1–0.5% (IFRA maximum 4.4%)
  • Perfume: yes – 5–17.2% (IFRA maximum 17.2%)
  • Lip balm: not suitable

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

Is Rainbow Drops fragrance oil hazardous?

Undiluted, Rainbow Drops is classified under GB CLP with the signal word Warning:

  • H317 May cause an allergic skin reaction.
  • 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 Rainbow Drops fragrance oil flammable?

No. Its flash point is 83°C, so it isn’t classified as flammable. Like any fragrance oil, keep it away from naked flames.

Will Rainbow Drops discolour my wax?

It may. Rainbow Drops contains vanillin (0.3%), which can turn wax, soap and other bases cream to brown over time. Test before bulk pouring – see our vanillin guide.

Is Rainbow Drops in the Scent Match Guide?

Yes – see Rainbow Drops in our Scent Match Guide, which suggests our oils for fragrances you may already enjoy.

Is there a CLP label for Rainbow Drops?

Yes. Our free CLP label creator makes a ready-to-print label for candles and wax melts made with Rainbow Drops, 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 Rainbow Drops 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.
