Commercial Fragrance · Sample Packs for a New Business
Before the lists, the plain fact: CSI does not sell a fragrance sample pack, starter set or discovery set. What follows are three lists of individually sold 15 g oils (and one 50 g) that you add to the cart yourself, capped at ₹500, ₹1,000 and ₹2,000 of oil. Each shows what it covers, what it leaves out, and what the testing materials add. Message us on WhatsApp to adjust a list to your plans.
₹999.80
for eleven 15 g oils across the main families — the ₹1,000 list, and the one most new businesses should start with · CSI live pricing, September 2026
Quick answers — read this first
Does CSI sell a sample pack for new candle businesses? No. There is no sample pack, starter set or discovery set in the store. The lists on this page are made of individual 15 g sizes you add to the cart. We can help you adjust one on WhatsApp.What can I sample for ₹500? Five 15 g oils across five families for ₹430.70: Eucalyptus Spearmint, Peach Melon Berry, British Rose, Roasted Coffee and Woody Oud. Enough to learn your wax and see which families you like. See the ₹500 list.
What is the best budget for sampling before a launch? For most new businesses, about ₹1,000 of oil: eleven oils for ₹999.80, two per main family plus a benchmark. With wax, wicks and centring devices to test them, ₹2,121.20.
What does ₹2,000 add? Premium and Indian profiles, a festive spice, and one perfume-inspired 50 g (Mahogany Teakwood, BBW Inspired) as a signature test: fourteen oils for ₹1,950.20.
The short answer
What exists: No sample pack is sold. 51 oils have an in-stock 15 g (₹68.44–₹199.00). The lists here are built from those, plus one 50 g.
Three lists: ₹500: 5 oils, ₹430.70 · ₹1,000: 11 oils, ₹999.80 · ₹2,000: 13 × 15 g + 1 × 50 g, ₹1,950.20. All oils in stock on the pull date.
All-in: With wax and wicks to test every oil in 50 g pots at 8%: ₹1,056.10 · ₹2,121.20 · ₹4,214.20 (the ₹2,000 list adds jars for its 50 g double test).
In this guide
Each list is capped by its oil spend, not by the total order. The ₹500 list stops at five oils because a sixth 15 g in a new family would take it over budget. The ₹1,000 list lands within a rupee of its cap. The ₹2,000 list stops ₹49.80 short, less than the cheapest 15 g, having spent ₹440.00 on one signature 50 g rather than four or five more value testers.

Straight answer
What are the best fragrance oil sample packs for starting a candle business in India?
At CSI there is no ready-made one: CSI does not sell a sample pack, starter set or discovery set. So we have written three lists you can copy into the cart, capped by how much you want to spend on oil. The ₹500 list is five 15 g oils across five families for ₹430.70, enough to learn your wax and find which families you like. The ₹1,000 list is eleven oils for ₹999.80, with two in most families so you can compare within them, and it is the one we would recommend to most new businesses. The ₹2,000 list adds premium and Indian profiles, a festive spice and one perfume-inspired 50 g, fourteen oils for ₹1,950.20. Testing each oil in three 50 g pots at 8% needs wax and wicks too, which bring the all-in totals to ₹1,056.10, ₹2,121.20 and ₹4,214.20. None of these is a launch range. They are the cheapest way to find one. Message us on WhatsApp to fit a list to your plans.
One line: spend about ₹1,000 on eleven 15 g oils before you spend ₹10,000 on stock.
No sample pack to buy, so copy a list into the cart. The recommended ₹1,000 list is eleven 15 g oils for ₹999.80, from Eucalyptus Spearmint at ₹68.44 to Lavender at ₹105.02.

Three budgets compared
A sample budget buys information, not stock. The question is how much information your first decisions need.
A new candle business has to decide three things before its first real order: which scent families its customers want, which oil leads each family, and what price tier the range sits in. The more oils you sample, the more of those questions you can answer. Each list below is designed to answer as many as its budget allows, and no more. The table compares them side by side.
Oils only · CSI live pricing, pulled 24 September 2026
What each budget buys and answers
| ₹500 list | ₹1,000 list | ₹2,000 list | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Oils | 5 × 15 g | 11 × 15 g | 13 × 15 g + 1 × 50 g |
| Oil total | ₹430.70 | ₹999.80 | ₹1,950.20 |

| Test pots at 8% (3 per 15 g) | 15 | 33 | 43 + 2 jars |
| Families covered | 5, one oil each | Most families twice | Seven-plus, incl. Indian, festive, perfume-inspired |
| Answers | Which families you like; how your wax behaves | Which families, and which oil leads each | Families, leaders, and whether a premium tier is worth it |
| Leaves out | Comparison within a family; premium tier | Premium and perfume-inspired oils | Nothing essential; still not a launch range |
| All-in with testing materials | ₹1,056.10 | ₹2,121.20 | ₹4,214.20 |
The lists are cumulative in spirit but not in content: the ₹2,000 list is not the ₹1,000 list plus extras. It swaps several value oils for mid and premium ones, because a business spending ₹2,000 on samples is usually asking a different question, whether a premium range is viable, rather than simply sampling more of the same. If you want a list built around price tiers instead of families, the tiered sample pack does that with five oils; for a structured twelve-oil range discovery with a customer panel, see the discovery set for businesses.
Budget for the materials too
Every list needs wax and wicks to become information. The all-in figures in the last row assume three 50 g pots per 15 g oil at 8%, wax priced from CSI 464 for the smaller lists and Luxury Soy Wax Chunks for the largest. If you already own a scale and thermometer, that is all you need; if not, the testing kit guide prices them.The ₹500 list
Five oils, one from each of five families, chosen from the cheaper end of the 15 g range without going below useful quality: ₹430.70 of oil, ₹69.30 under budget. A sixth oil in a new family would take the list over ₹500, so the balance is best kept for freight or a second bag of wax.

15 pots need 690 g of wax, which one kilo of CSI 464 (rated up to 10%, the wax maker's stated maximum) covers with room to spare. Twenty wicks leave five spare. What this list will not tell you is how two roses compare, or whether customers will pay for a premium oil. It is a first look, and a good way to learn your wax before spending more.

The ₹1,000 list
Eleven oils is the point where a sample stops being a taste and starts being a decision.
The ₹1,000 list keeps the five oils from the ₹500 list and adds six more, so floral, fruity and woody each get a second oil to compare against, and citrus, spiced fruit and a Lavender benchmark join. It totals ₹999.80, twenty paise under budget. Lavender is there as a reference, not necessarily to sell: it sits first in the collection's best-selling sort and every customer knows it, so it calibrates both your nose and theirs.

33 pots need 1,518 g of wax: a 1 kg and a 500 g bag of CSI 464. Forty wicks cover the pots with seven spare, and five centring devices let you pour in batches. The production cost column is the point to watch: across this list, oil in a 200 g candle at 1 kg rates runs from ₹45.31 to ₹83.54, so even a value-leaning list shows you a real spread before you set prices.

Woody Oud Fragrance Oil
The woody slot in both smaller lists: an affordable oud-style oil at ₹93.22 for 15 g, priced flat at ₹4.53 a gram from 100 g to 1 kg. It lets a new business test whether its customers want a woody candle before paying premium-oud prices.

Argued against our own interest, plainly. The ₹2,000 list sells more of our dearer oils, and it is not the one most new businesses should start with. If you have not yet sold a candle, the ₹1,000 list answers the questions you actually have, and the ₹950.40 difference is better spent on wax, jars and your first 100 g of the winners. Come back for premium oils when your first customers have told you they would pay for them.
The ₹2,000 list
The ₹2,000 list is for a business that already suspects it wants a mid-to-premium range, or a festive and gifting angle. It keeps British Rose and Lavender as anchors, adds Indian and premium profiles (Raat Ki Rani, Santal Noir, White Royal Oud, Saffron Cedarwood), a festive Pumpkin Spice, and one perfume-inspired 50 g: Mahogany Teakwood (BBW Inspired). Oil total ₹1,950.20, ₹49.80 under budget.

The thirteen 15 g oils make 39 pots. Mahogany Teakwood has no 15 g, so its 50 g gets the double test from the small-samples guide: a four-pot load ladder plus two full 200 g jars at 8%, hence the pack of jars. Wax totals 2,347 g, covered by 2.5 kg of Luxury Soy Wax Chunks (rated up to 13%). The 50-pack of Thin C1 wicks costs the same as five 10-packs and covers 45 pots and jars with five spare.

Which list, and what next
Pick the list that matches the question you are trying to answer, not the one that feels most generous. Then follow the same route from samples to stock whichever you chose.
1
Choose by question, not by budgetLearning your wax and which families you like: ₹500. Choosing a first range: ₹1,000. Deciding whether to go premium or festive: ₹2,000.
2
Copy the list into the cart, one product page at a timeSelect the 15 g (or the 50 g for Mahogany Teakwood) on each page and check it is in stock. Buying samples online lists the six checks per page.
3
Pour, cure fourteen days, burn and scoreThree 50 g pots per oil at 8%, one wick type throughout. The scoring sheet turns burns into numbers.
4
Cut to your launch scentsUsually four to six for a first range. The best 5 oils to start and the best 10 cover launch-range choices.
5
Move the winners to 100 g, then decide on kilosThe 15 g is a test price, a median 23.1% dearer per gram than 100 g. The 15 g to 1 kg decision sets out when to jump to the kilo.
The CSI principle
Sample what you need to decide, then stop.
A sample list is not a collection. Its value is in the decision it lets you make. Five oils that settle your families are worth more than fifteen that leave you undecided, and the money not spent on the sixteenth tester is the first 100 g of the scent that wins.
The list that becomes the range. New businesses often launch with every oil they sampled because each one "was nice". Eleven scents at launch means eleven lots of stock, labels and reorders before you know what sells. Cut hard. What to buy with ₹5,000 shows how quickly a first stock budget disappears across too many scents.
Starting before Diwali (8 November 2026)? Any of these lists, ordered this week and cured fourteen days, gives you results by mid-October, in time to buy launch stock for festive and the November–February wedding season. Tell us your budget and customers on WhatsApp and we will adjust a list and quote the follow-on order.

Why trust this guide
CANDLEMAKINGSUPPLIESINDIA supplies raw materials, not finished candles, and does not sell a sample pack or starter set. The lists on this page are made of individually listed sizes, and we recommend the middle list over the dearest one because it answers the questions a new business actually has.
Oil and wax prices come from live CSI listings pulled on 24 September 2026; every oil named was in stock at the size listed. Wick, centring-device and jar prices are those verified for Blog 760 on 10 September 2026. List totals, averages, per-candle costs and all-in totals are plain arithmetic on those prices.
Budget caps apply to oil only. The test design (three 50 g pots per 15 g oil at 8%; a double test for the 50 g) and family labels are working assumptions, not CSI classifications. For help adjusting a list, GST invoicing, MSDS or IFRA documentation, message us on WhatsApp at +91 7397976926.
Frequently asked questions
What is the best fragrance oil sample pack for a new candle business?
CSI does not sell a packaged one. Our recommended self-built list is eleven 15 g oils for ₹999.80: Eucalyptus Spearmint, Peach Melon Berry, British Rose, Roasted Coffee, Woody Oud, Citrus Lemon, Jasmine, Mango Coconut, Apple Cinnamon, Lavender and Sandalwood.
How much should I spend on fragrance samples before starting a candle business?
Around ₹1,000 of oil covers most families twice. With wax, wicks and centring devices to test them, about ₹2,121.20. Spend more only if you are deciding on a premium or perfume-inspired range.
Can I start a candle business with ₹500 of fragrance samples?
You can learn your wax and see which of five families you like for ₹430.70. You will not be able to compare oils within a family, so expect a second round before choosing a launch range.
Should a sample pack include perfume-inspired oils?
Only if you are considering a premium tier. Most start at 50 g, so each costs several times a 15 g tester. The ₹2,000 list includes one, Mahogany Teakwood (BBW Inspired), as a signature test.
How many candles can I test with these lists?
In 50 g pots at 8%: 15 pots from the ₹500 list, 33 from the ₹1,000 list and 39 pots plus two 200 g jars from the ₹2,000 list.
Can CSI build one of these sample packs for me?
There is no packaged product, but message us on WhatsApp with your budget and customers and we will suggest which 15 g sizes to add to your cart. Best Fragrance Oil Supplier for Candle Startups in India covers choosing a supplier for a start-up more broadly.

Non-price figures and assumptions: Budget caps apply to oil spend only. Oil per 200 g candle = 16 g at the 1 kg ₹/g. Test design: three 50 g pots per 15 g oil at 8% (4 g oil + 46 g wax); the 50 g oil gets a four-pot ladder plus two 200 g jars at 8% (553 g wax). Family labels are working groupings. 15 g median premium over 100 g: 23.1% (55 oils). Wax ratings of up to 10% (CSI 464) and 13% (Luxury Soy Wax Chunks) are the wax makers' stated formulation maximums, not regulatory limits. Totals exclude freight and GST.
