Professional Candle Fragrance Oils for Candle Manufacturers
Share
How many CSI oils pass the production-pack check today? Of 96 fragrance oils with at least one size in stock, 87 have their 1 kg in stock. Nine have smaller sizes available but the kilo sold out — don't launch a production SKU on those.
What does a 12-scent line cost? ₹54,435.40 for 1 kg each, making about 750 × 200g candles at 8%. Starting eight of the twelve in 500g drops that to ₹35,524.40 — and on those eight, buying in 500g instead of kilos costs only ₹55.20 more across all eight kilos.
Is there a 5 kg or 10 kg pack? No. The largest listed fragrance size is 1 kg. Larger and recurring orders, bulk pricing and documentation go through WhatsApp.
Five checks that make an oil professional
A hobby maker chooses an oil once. A manufacturer chooses it every month, pours it into hundreds of candles, and has retailers and repeat customers expecting the same candle each time. That changes what matters. The scent still has to be good, but a beautiful oil you cannot reorder in a production pack, cannot document, or cannot identify precisely on the next purchase order is not a professional oil — it is a liability with a nice smell. Here are the five checks, what each protects you from, and how to run it on CSI's catalogue.
| Check | What it protects you from | How to run it | What CSI's listings show |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 · Production pack in stock | A launched SKU you cannot restock | Confirm the 1 kg variant is available, not just the small sizes | 87 of 96 in-stock oils have 1 kg available; 9 have it sold out |
| 2 · Sampling size | Committing a kilo to an untested scent | Look for 15g or 50g before 1 kg | 50 have a 15g in stock; 17 have neither 15g nor 50g in stock, so testing starts at 100g or more |
| 3 · Unambiguous listing | Reordering a different oil by mistake | Specify product link + size on every order | A few look-alike names and stale shipping notes in titles exist — see the naming section |
| 4 · Documentation | Retail, export or marketplace compliance gaps | Request MSDS and IFRA documents per oil before the first production order; keep GST invoices | MSDS, IFRA documentation and GST invoicing on request via WhatsApp |
| 5 · Proven load | Sweating, weak throw or cost drift | Fix the load per scent after a cured burn in your production wax, within the wax's stated ceiling | Wax pages state ceilings: Luxury Soy Wax Chunks and CSI 468 up to 13%, CSI 464 up to 10% |
Notice what is not on the list: a claim that one oil is "stronger" or "premium grade". Those are properties you verify in your own burn, not boxes a supplier ticks for you. What a supplier can show you is availability, pack structure, identifiable listings and documentation — so those are what a manufacturer should audit first. For how the manufacturer-versus-supplier distinction affects these checks, see bulk candle fragrance oil manufacturer and supplier.
Continuity: the production pack must be in stock
The most expensive fragrance problem a manufacturer can have is a bestselling candle whose oil cannot be restocked. It rarely announces itself. The small sizes stay available, the product page still loads, and only the kilo is marked sold out. Here are the oils in CSI's catalogue in exactly that state today — useful to know, and a reminder to check the production pack of any oil before it goes into a launch plan.
| Oil | Sizes currently in stock | 1 kg listed price (sold out) | Production stance |
|---|---|---|---|
| Vetiver | 15 gm ₹187.62 · 50 gm ₹354 · 100 gm ₹600 · 500 gm ₹2,900 | ₹5,664 | 500 gm is available — workable for a small run; confirm kilo restock on WhatsApp |
| Sacred Sandal Ember | 500g ₹3,999 | ₹6,999 | Qualify from 500g only; no sampling size in stock |
| Moca Coffee | 50g ₹560 · 100g ₹1,120 | ₹11,200 | Sample only |
| Wild Berry | 100g ₹629 | ₹6,287 | Sample only — note the separate in-stock "Wild Berries" listing |
| Grapefruit Oleo | 100g ₹341 | ₹3,407 | Sample only |
| Coffee Blast | 50g ₹649 | ₹12,800 | Sample only |
| Three bath-and-body-inspired listings | 50g, 100g or 500g on some sizes | ₹11,220–₹11,980 | Sample only |
Naming: order by link and size, not by scent name
Any catalogue of more than a hundred oils accumulates look-alike names, renamed listings and titles with old shipping notes. CSI's is no exception, and we would rather show you than let a reorder go wrong. None of the examples below is a problem if you order by the exact product link and size; every one of them is a potential problem if you order by name from memory or over a phone call.
| What you might say | What the catalogue actually lists | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| "Pomegranate Splash" | Pomegranate Splash Fragrance Oil — 1kg ₹3,999, 500g ₹1,999 · and Pomegranate Splash — 1kg ₹3,843, no 500g | Two listings, two price ladders; treat them as different oils until you have compared them |
| "Spicy Raspberry" | Spicy Raspberry (in stock, 1kg ₹5,999) · a second Spicy Raspberry listing, fully sold out | Only one is orderable; specify the link |
| "Wild Berry" | Wild Berries (1kg ₹5,999, in stock) · Wild Berry (1kg ₹6,287, sold out) | One letter apart, different prices and stock |
| "Dark Vanilla" or "Vanilla Bean" | Dark Vanilla and Vanilla Bean — identical prices at all five sizes (1 kg ₹7,646) | Different names; do not assume they are interchangeable — test each as its own oil |
| "Rajnigandha" or "Raat Ki Rani" | Rajnigandha (Tuberose) title still carries "(Ships 12th July 2025)"; Raat Ki Rani's link carries an old shipping date | Stale notes, not current dispatch dates — both are in stock in 1 kg |
| "Gardenia" | Gardenia Fragrance Oil, whose link reads gardenia-tuberose | Save the link, not a guessed URL |
The professional habit is simple. Every scent in your line has a spec sheet with the exact product link and the size you buy, and every purchase order — online, on WhatsApp or by email — quotes both. If a listing's title, price or link changes between orders, you will notice before the oil reaches the melter rather than after the candles reach a customer.
A costed 12-scent professional line
Twelve scents is a practical size for a small manufacturer: enough to cover the main customer tastes and seasons, few enough to qualify, document and forecast properly. The line below passes the production-pack check on every oil, covers every major fragrance family, and puts review-backed oils at the core. Tiers matter because they decide pack size. Costs are at 1 kg pricing for 200g candles at 8% (16g of oil).
| Tier | Oil | Family | 1 kg | 500g | Oil per 200g @ 8% | Buyer review on page | Starting pack |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Core | Lavender | Herbal | ₹5,221 | ₹2,620 | ₹83.54 | 6 · two about hot throw | 1 kg |
| Core | British Rose | Floral | ₹3,068 | ₹1,593 | ₹49.09 | 3 · hot and cold throw | 1 kg |
| Core | Woody Oud | Woody | ₹4,531.20 | ₹2,265.60 | ₹72.50 | 2 · strong in candles | 1 kg |
| Core | Roasted Coffee | Gourmand | ₹3,738 | ₹1,890 | ₹59.81 | 3 · "quite strong" | 1 kg |
| Breadth | Citrus Lemon | Citrus | ₹2,832 | ₹1,420 | ₹45.31 | 1 | 500g |
| Breadth | Blue Ocean | Aquatic | ₹4,956 | ₹2,478 | ₹79.30 | 2 | 500g |
| Breadth | Orchard Pear | Fruity | ₹3,738 | ₹1,870 | ₹59.81 | 1 · "overwhelming" | 500g |
| Breadth | Jasmine | Indian floral | ₹3,923 | ₹1,961 | ₹62.77 | 1 | 500g |
| Seasonal | Apple Cinnamon | Spice | ₹4,743.60 | ₹2,371.80 | ₹75.90 | 3 · led to orders | 500g |
| Seasonal | Cinnamon Vanilla | Gourmand spice | ₹4,554.80 | ₹2,301 | ₹72.88 | 2 · "Will buy more" | 500g |
| Seasonal | Sandalwood | Woody Indian | ₹5,026.80 | ₹2,513.40 | ₹80.43 | 1 | 500g |
| Premium | White Royal Oud | Oud | ₹8,103 | ₹4,051 | ₹129.65 | None yet | 500gm |
| Line totals | ₹54,435.40 | — | ₹72.58 average | ₹35,524.40 as started | |||
Why start eight of the twelve in 500g? Because on these eight oils the per-gram price barely moves between 500g and 1 kg. Buying each as two 500g packs instead of one kilo would cost ₹55.20 more across all eight kilos combined — ₹47.20 of it on Cinnamon Vanilla, ₹8 on Citrus Lemon, ₹2 on Orchard Pear, nothing on Blue Ocean, Apple Cinnamon or Sandalwood, and ₹1 less on Jasmine and White Royal Oud. That is a negligible price for holding ₹18,911 less cash on the shelf until you know each scent's sell-through. The core four go in kilos because they are the scents you will pour every week, and British Rose in particular is 3.7% cheaper per gram as a kilo than as two 500g packs.
Four of the twelve are worth a closer look, because they fill production roles the review-backed core cannot. Each card counts the 150g test jars at 10% (15g of oil) a pack fills, matching the qualification protocol below.
| Size | Price | Per kg | 150g test jars @ 10% |
|---|---|---|---|
| 15 gm | ₹81.42 | ₹5,428 | ≈1 |
| 50 gm | ₹170 | ₹3,400 | ≈3 |
| 100 gm | ₹300 | ₹3,000 | ≈6 |

Qualifying twelve oils before the first kilo
Qualification is the step that turns a list of scents into a production line. Buying 50g of all twelve oils costs ₹3,070.78 — ₹255.90 per scent on average, against ₹54,435.40 for the kilos. Each 50g bottle covers three 150g test jars at 10% with a little spare. The protocol below is designed for a manufacturer: fixed conditions, written records, and a pass/fail decision per oil.
The one-page fragrance specification
Every scent in a professional line gets one page. It is the purchase specification, the pouring instruction and the quality record in one, and it is what lets a second person pour the same candle. Here is the template with an example filled in for British Rose in Luxury Soy Wax Chunks. The wax figures are as stated on the product page; the production choices are examples to replace with your own qualified results.
| Field | Example entry (British Rose) | Why it's on the page |
|---|---|---|
| Exact listing | British Rose Fragrance Oil · candlemakingsuppliesindia.store/products/british-rose | Removes name ambiguity on reorders |
| Pack bought · price | 1 kg · ₹3,068 (September 2026) | Tracks price changes between orders |
| Documents on file | MSDS · IFRA documentation · GST invoice (dates) | Ready when a stockist asks |
| Wax · stated range | Luxury Soy Wax Chunks · 8–13%, 10% recommended | The ceiling your load must respect |
| Production load | 8% (example) · 16g per 200g candle | Fixes cost and throw |
| Add · pour temperature | 80–90°C add · 70–80°C pour (as stated) · stir 2 minutes | Temperature is part of the recipe |
| Wick · vessel | Your qualified wick for your qualified jar | Throw depends on pool |
| Cure before sale | 14 days minimum (example) | Stops early dispatch |
| Qualification result | Day-21 doorway score · pool time · soot · surface | The evidence the oil passed |
| Retained sample | Sealed, labelled with invoice date | Reference for incoming checks |
| Oil cost per candle | ₹49.09 at 1 kg pricing | Keeps pricing honest when loads change |
How much of each oil to hold month to month is its own calculation, covered in wholesale fragrance oil for candle manufacturers and how to plan fragrance inventory before the festive season. The spec sheet is what makes those forecasts trustworthy: a forecast built on a load that drifts is not a forecast.
CANDLEMAKINGSUPPLIESINDIA is a raw-material supplier, not a fragrance manufacturer and not a candle maker. That is exactly why this guide audits our own catalogue in public — the oils whose kilo is sold out, the look-alike listings, the stale shipping notes in titles. A manufacturer who knows those things orders precisely and keeps ordering; one who finds them out on a production day does not.
Every price, pack size and stock status comes from live CSI stock in September 2026 and links to the product page, where current pricing and availability always take precedence — stock changes in both directions. Counts are taken from the live fragrance catalogue: 96 oils with at least one size in stock, 87 with 1 kg in stock, 50 with a 15g in stock. Wax loads and temperatures are quoted as the product pages state them and are formulation limits, not regulatory limits. Reviews are quoted verbatim from Judge.me.

Maths: 200g candle at 8% = 16g oil; oil cost = 1 kg price ÷ 1,000 × grams; 5 × 1 kg British Rose = ₹15,340; one extra load point on a 200g candle = 2g. Production loads, cure and pass criteria in the template are examples. Prices and availability change — the linked product pages are always authoritative.
