The scent

Recharge Black Pepper Fragrance Oil bursts open with bright orange, sharp lemon, and fresh green galbanum, delivering an instantly clean and energising citrus lift. Spicy black pepper and aromatic rosemary add warmth and vibrancy, leading into a heart of clove and subtle jasmine for smooth depth. As it settles, patchouli, amber, woods, and soft musk create a refined, long-lasting base that feels confident and grounded. Fresh yet spicy and unmistakably sophisticated, this woody-aromatic fragrance is perfectly suited to autumn and winter collections, evening blends, and premium ranges designed for bold, characterful creations.

Amazing, my favourite shower gel can now be recreated for a fraction on the price! Love Pure Scented fragrances, so clean compared to other so called candle specialists.

How much Recharge Black Pepper 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 Recharge Black Pepper in a reed diffuser?

Yes. Use 15–21.42% Recharge Black Pepper in a reed diffuser base such as Augeo Clean Multi. The IFRA maximum is 21.42%. Ready-made reed diffuser CLP labels and an SDS are in the documents above.

Can I use Recharge Black Pepper in soap, lotion or perfume?

  • Body lotion: yes – 0.5–1.5% (IFRA maximum 6.18%)

  • Perfume: yes – 5–20% (IFRA maximum 24.74%)

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

Is Recharge Black Pepper fragrance oil hazardous?

Undiluted, Recharge Black Pepper is classified under GB CLP with the signal word Warning:

  • H315 Causes skin irritation.
  • H317 May cause an allergic skin reaction.
  • H319 Causes serious eye irritation.
  • H411 Toxic 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 Recharge Black Pepper fragrance oil flammable?

No. Its flash point is 78°C, so it isn’t classified as flammable. Like any fragrance oil, keep it away from naked flames.

Will Recharge Black Pepper discolour my wax?

It’s unlikely. Recharge Black Pepper contains no vanillin or ethyl vanillin, the most common cause of discolouration. Always test with your own wax and dyes.

Is Recharge Black Pepper in the Scent Match Guide?

Yes – see Recharge Black Pepper in our Scent Match Guide, which suggests our oils for fragrances you may already enjoy.

Is there a CLP label for Recharge Black Pepper?

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