BUILD YOUR FRAGRANCE LIBRARY

Keep important information about each fragrance oil in one place:

• Fragrance name and ID
• Supplier and product number
• Scent family
• Top, heart, and base notes
• Perceived strength
• Cost per ounce
• IFRA-document status

CREATE REPEATABLE BLENDS

Enter up to four fragrance components and assign parts to each one.

The workbook automatically calculates:

• Total blend parts
• Percentage of each component
• Total fragrance needed for the test batch
• Gram weight required for each component

Change the component parts, wax-batch weight, or target fragrance load, and the formula updates automatically.
