Buy 1 Kg Candle Fragrance Oil Online in Visakhapatnam
Share
How many candles is a kilo of oil? At 8%: 178 × 70 g votives, 125 × 100 g, 104 × 120 g, 83 × 150 g or 62 × 200 g. Measure the kilo in months of your own output, not in candles — 104 jars is four months at twenty-five a month and one month at a hundred.
Is the kilo bottle always cheaper per gram? No. Cinnamon Fragrance Oil saves ₹590 a kilogram against two 500 g packs; Chocolate Fudge and Fresh Strawberries save nothing at all; Wild Berries costs ₹1 more; and Saffron Cedarwood costs ₹1,699.20 more. It is a per-oil fact, never a rule.
How long will an opened kilo last in Vizag? No CSI page states a shelf life or a storage rule — zero of 107 — so there is no number to quote. The honest discipline is to buy the kilo only for a scent you are already reordering, keep the bottle closed and weigh a working amount out of it rather than pouring from it forty times.
A kilo of oil is a wax order
The arithmetic is one line and it is the most useful line in this guide. Because load is a percentage of the finished candle, an 8% candle is 8 parts oil and 92 parts wax — so every gram of oil needs 11.5 g of wax, and every kilogram needs 11.5 kg. Push the load to 10% and the ratio falls to 9 kg of wax per kilo; drop it to 7% and it rises to 13.29 kg. The kilo bottle, in other words, quietly sets the size of your next wax order, and the wax is the heavier, bulkier and often dearer half.
| Load | Wax per 1 kg of oil | Finished candles it makes | Bought as CSI 464 | Wax cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 7% | 13.29 kg | 119 × 120 g | 1 × 10 kg + 3 × 1 kg + 1 × 500 g = 13.5 kg | ₹6,856.20 |
| 8% — the series convention | 11.5 kg | 104 × 120 g | 1 × 10 kg + 1 × 1 kg + 1 × 500 g = 11.5 kg | ₹5,841.40 |
| 10% | 9 kg | 83 × 120 g | 1 × 5 kg + 4 × 1 kg = 9 kg | ₹4,566.60 |
| 13% | 6.69 kg | 64 × 120 g | 1 × 5 kg + 2 × 1 kg = 7 kg | ₹3,551.80 |
Now put the two halves together, because the ratio of one to the other is what actually decides whether a kilo is a comfortable purchase. Across four representative oils the wax line does not move at all and the fragrance line more than doubles: on Citrus Lemon the scent is 33% of the pair, on Japanese Cherry Blossom 45%, on Cinnamon 48% and on Vanilla Bean 57%. A cheap kilo is genuinely cheap — ₹8,673.40 buys a hundred and four jars' worth of both materials. An expensive kilo is not expensive because the bottle is dear; it is expensive because it drags the same wax bill behind a scent you are far less sure about.
What the kilo covers, in candles and in months
Candle counts are the standard way to size a kilo and they are the least useful, because they say nothing about how long your money is tied up. Convert to months of your own output instead. The first table is the count; the second is the one to act on.
| Finished candle | Oil each | Candles from 1 kg | Wax needed | Where this size sells in Vizag |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 70 g votive | 5.6 g | 178 | 11.5 kg | Temple-adjacent retail and the Karthika weeks after Diwali |
| 100 g jar | 8 g | 125 | 11.5 kg | Hotel and guest-room lines, entry-price gifting |
| 120 g jar | 9.6 g | 104 | 11.5 kg | The everyday retail jar — the reference size in this guide |
| 150 g jar | 12 g | 83 | 11.5 kg | Hampers, favours and resort gift shops |
| 200 g jar | 16 g | 62 | 11.5 kg | Premium single-jar gifting |
| Your output of this scent | Months of cover on one kilo | What the kilo is doing to you | Better buy |
|---|---|---|---|
| 10 jars a month | Over 10 months | Cash parked, a bottle opened and closed dozens of times, and a scent you may fall out of love with | 100 g or 500 g. Revisit when a repeat order appears |
| 25 jars a month | About 4 months | Workable, but the bottle will be open through a whole monsoon or a whole festive quarter | 500 g twice, unless the kilo saves a real amount on that oil |
| 50 jars a month | About 2 months | The sweet spot: fast enough that the bottle is a working stock item rather than an ornament | The kilo, if the ladder rewards it |
| 100 jars a month | About 1 month | The kilo is now your reorder unit, and the question has become how many to hold | The kilo, and a second as buffer through the festive quarter |
Where the kilo actually costs less
This is the part that has to be counted rather than assumed, and the counting is unflattering to the usual advice. Of the 71 fragrance listings that currently stock both a 500 g and a 1 kg pack, the kilogram is cheaper per kilo on 32, identical on 20 and dearer on 19. Seventeen of the nineteen are dearer by exactly one rupee a kilogram, which is rounding inside a price rather than a signal. Two are dearer by ₹1,699.20, which is not.
| Oil | 500 g | Two 500 g = per kg | 1 kg listed | The kilo… |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Cinnamon Fragrance Oil | ₹2,950 | ₹5,900 | ₹5,310 | saves ₹590 — the biggest real saving on this list, about 10% |
| Pumpkin Spice | ₹2,950 | ₹5,900 | ₹5,310 | saves ₹590 |
| Verbena | ₹2,478 | ₹4,956 | ₹4,720 | saves ₹236 |
| Japanese Cherry Blossom | ₹2,500 | ₹5,000 | ₹4,842 | saves ₹158 |
| Cinnamon Vanilla | ₹2,301 | ₹4,602 | ₹4,554.80 | saves ₹47.20 |
| Vanilla Bean | ₹3,840 | ₹7,680 | ₹7,646 | saves ₹34 |
| Citrus Lemon | ₹1,420 | ₹2,840 | ₹2,832 | saves ₹8 |
| Chocolate Fudge | ₹1,982.40 | ₹3,964.80 | ₹3,964.80 | saves nothing — identical to the rupee |
| Fresh Strawberries | ₹1,770 | ₹3,540 | ₹3,540 | saves nothing |
| Wild Berries | ₹2,999 | ₹5,998 | ₹5,999 | costs ₹1 more |
| Saffron Cedarwood | ₹2,584.20 | ₹5,168.40 | ₹6,867.60 | costs ₹1,699.20 more |
Three scents that earn a kilo in Visakhapatnam
Each of these three has a genuine reason to be bought at the kilo rather than the half: one for the size of the saving, one for the width of its stated load band, and one because it is the sort of scent a coastal range keeps selling long enough to finish a bottle. All three have the kilo in stock.
| Size | Price | Per 100g | 120g jars @ 8% |

When a scent has earned the bottle
Five tests, in order. A scent that passes all five deserves a kilo; one that fails any of them deserves another 500 g pack instead, at a price that is usually within a few hundred rupees anyway.
An open kilo in a coastal workshop
Two honest statements before anything else. First, no CSI fragrance page states a shelf life, an expiry, a best-before date, a storage temperature or any storage instruction — zero of 107 — so nothing here is a supplier specification and no number should be attributed to one. Second, nothing below rests on a temperature or humidity statistic for Visakhapatnam; it is general handling practice that any maker can check. What is specific to this coast is the absence of a long cool, dry stretch: outside January and February, an open bottle is being opened in warm and often humid air, and the practical answer is to reduce the number of times it is opened rather than to invent a rule about how long it lasts.
| The situation | What goes wrong | The habit |
|---|---|---|
| A kilo opened for every batch of six jars | Forty-plus openings over a season; a cap that has been cross-threaded once stops sealing properly | Weigh a batch's worth into a small working container and close the kilo immediately. Never pour from the kilo into a melter |
| The bottle stored on its side or on a low shelf | Seepage at the cap, a label you can no longer read, and dust in the thread | Upright, raised, label out, cap wiped before it is closed |
| Batches poured from an unrecorded bottle | A change in throw that you cannot attribute to the bottle, the cure or the season | Write the bottle on the batch sheet. One bottle open at a time, always |
| A vanilla or gourmand kilo in white wax | Vanillin-driven yellowing over weeks of warm storage — stated outright on several pages, including 2.5% on Vanilla Bean | Design for it: cream, amber or opaque vessels for the gourmand lines, and save white glass for the stated-0% oils |
| A kilo bought for a single order that then did not repeat | Cash parked, plus 11.5 kg of wax bought to match it | Two 500 g packs instead. On four of the eleven oils above that costs you nothing at all |
Above a kilo
There is nothing above it in the catalogue. One kilogram is the largest fragrance pack CSI lists — no 2 kg, no 5 kg, no 10 kg bottle — and no price for a larger pack is published anywhere, so none is stated here. If one order needs four kilos of a single scent, the honest sequence is: multiply the listed kilo price to get a ceiling, check whether two 500 g packs beat the kilo on that particular oil, and then ask.
Four kilos of Cinnamon Fragrance Oil at the listed ₹5,310 is ₹21,240; of Citrus Lemon at ₹2,832, ₹11,328; of Vanilla Bean at ₹7,646, ₹30,584. Treat those as the worst case and budget from them — and remember that four kilos of oil at 8% obliges 46 kg of wax, which on CSI 464 is four 10 kg bags plus six kilos, about ₹23,340.40. Then message WhatsApp with the named oil, the kilograms, how often you expect to reorder and whether you need GST invoicing and MSDS or IFRA documentation. Bulk pricing is a conversation there, not a published figure, and nothing on this page states what it will be.
CANDLEMAKINGSUPPLIESINDIA supplies raw materials, not finished candles, and would take more money today by telling every reader to buy the kilo. Instead, half of this page is a list of oils where the kilo saves nothing or costs more, and a table of outputs at which the 500 g pack is the better buy. That is not modesty; it is that a maker who ties ₹13,000 into one scent they were unsure about tends to stop ordering, and one who scales a scent they have already sold twice keeps going.
All prices, pack sizes and stated specifications are from live CSI stock and product pages in September 2026, and the linked product page always takes precedence. The 500 g against 1 kg comparison covers the 71 fragrance listings that currently stock both packs; where the listed kilo is dearer, that is reported as the numbers show it rather than explained away, and the page should be checked before ordering. Stated loads, cures, flash points and vanillin contents are quoted only from pages that state them — Cinnamon 193°C and 0% vanillin, Vanilla Bean 203°C and 2.5% vanillin with its own discolouration warning, Japanese Cherry Blossom's 6–13% band — and loads are formulation guidance, not regulatory limits. No shelf life, expiry or storage specification is quoted anywhere, because no CSI page states one. CSI has no shop, stockist, agent or warehouse in Visakhapatnam, and no delivery time, courier or shipping rate appears on this page.
For quantities above the 1 kg fragrance pack, GST invoicing, MSDS or IFRA documentation, message +91 7397976926 on WhatsApp with the named oil and the kilograms per order. This page does not state what any quote will be.

Load arithmetic treats fragrance load as a percentage of finished candle weight: wax per 1 kg of oil = (100 − load) ÷ load kilograms, giving 13.29 kg at 7%, 11.5 kg at 8%, 9 kg at 10% and 6.69 kg at 13%; candle counts are 1,000 g ÷ the oil in one candle, rounded down (120 g jar at 8% = 110.4 g wax + 9.6 g oil). Wax routes: 11.5 kg of CSI 464 = ₹5,074 + ₹507.40 + ₹260 = ₹5,841.40; Luxury Soy Wax Chunks = ₹5,999 + ₹599 + ₹299 = ₹6,897; CSI 468 = ₹6,370 + ₹650 + ₹325 = ₹7,345; Eco Soy CSI 400 12 kg = 2 × ₹1,996 + 2 × ₹399 = ₹4,790; 13.5 kg = ₹5,074 + 3 × ₹507.40 + ₹260 = ₹6,856.20; 9 kg = ₹2,537 + 4 × ₹507.40 = ₹4,566.60; 7 kg = ₹2,537 + 2 × ₹507.40 = ₹3,551.80; 46 kg = 4 × ₹5,074 + 6 × ₹507.40 = ₹23,340.40. Pair totals: Citrus Lemon ₹2,832 + ₹5,841.40 = ₹8,673.40 (fragrance 33%); Japanese Cherry Blossom ₹10,683.40 (45%); Cinnamon ₹11,151.40 (48%); Wild Berries ₹11,840.40; Vanilla Bean ₹13,487.40 (57%).

Rung counts from live stock data: of the 71 listings holding both 500 g and 1 kg, the kilo is cheaper per kilogram on 32, identical on 20 and dearer on 19, seventeen of those by ₹1 a kilogram. Stated specifications quoted from product pages: Cinnamon Fragrance Oil flashpoint 193°C, vanillin content 0% with no risk of discoloration, up to 10% soy and up to 6% paraffin, cure 48–72 hours soy and 24–48 hours paraffin; Japanese Cherry Blossom 6% to 13% for candles with 6–8% for a light presence and 10–13% for a richer one, 10–18% for wax melts, soy cure 48–72 hours; Vanilla Bean flashpoint 203°C, vanillin content 2.5% with stated potential discoloration and advice to test with lighter waxes, up to 10% soy and up to 6% paraffin, cure 48–72 hours soy, cotton or wooden wicks recommended.

Cure of 14 to 21 days for soy containers is standard practice. Diwali 2026 is 8 November 2026; Dasara, Ugadi and Karthika Masam are named without dates.
