Honeydew Melon Fragrance Oil
A fresh fruity — honeydew melon, guava, peach, mango, pineapple, light florals.
The scent
Honeydew Melon leads with juicy, ripe melon — soft, watery and sweet, with that fresh-cut fruit character that makes it feel light and thirst-quenching. Guava, peach, mango and pineapple sit alongside it, adding a tropical juiciness that fills the fruit out and stops it feeling flat. A light floral background runs underneath, keeping it soft and rounded without pulling focus from the fruit. It’s a bright, refreshing fruity scent that sells well for spring and summer ranges, and appeals to customers who want something juicy, sweet and easy to like.

- H315 Causes skin irritation.
- H317 May cause an allergic skin reaction.
- H319 Causes serious eye irritation.

Candles, wax melts and diffusers you make with it may need their own CLP label. Full details are in the Safety Data Sheet.
Is Honeydew Melon fragrance oil flammable?
No. Its flash point is 74°C, so it isn’t classified as flammable. Like any fragrance oil, keep it away from naked flames.
Will Honeydew Melon discolour my wax?
It’s unlikely. Honeydew Melon contains no vanillin or ethyl vanillin, the most common cause of discolouration. Always test with your own wax and dyes.
Is there a CLP label for Honeydew Melon?
Yes. Our free CLP label creator makes a ready-to-print label for candles and wax melts made with Honeydew Melon, 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 Honeydew Melon 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.

I can smell the honeydew melon but the scent of the fruit isn’t strong enough- still very nice!
