Buy Fragrance Oils for Coconut Soy Wax in India

Same oils, different wax bill

Every oil in the Fragrance Oils collection is sold for candle making in general. None is listed as specific to coconut soy, and we have no compatibility data that would justify one. What does change when you move to coconut soy is the wax line on your costing. Coconut-soy blends are generally chosen for a creamy, smooth top and a premium position above plain soy, and you pay for that in the wax. The table below holds the oil constant and changes only the wax, so you can see the whole of that cost.

The last column is the same for every oil — ₹9.38 — because the only thing that changed is 184 g of wax at ₹650.00 a kilo instead of ₹599.00. Material cost means oil, wax, wick and jar, and excludes labour, packaging, freight and GST. On a candle that already costs ₹282.70 in coconut soy with Lavender, the wax premium over soy chunks is about 3.3% of materials. The two dearer coconut waxes are a bigger step: Premium Coconut Soy Wax adds ₹59.06 per candle over soy chunks and Coconut Wax adds ₹78.68.

If you are coming from soy, nothing else in your kit needs to change for a first test: the same Eco Candle Wicks, the same jars, the same oils. Whether your current wick suits a coconut-soy melt pool is something only a burn test can tell you; wick sizes for jar diameters are not published in our data.

Which pack to buy, and when

Oils at CSI come in up to five sizes: 15 g, 50 g, 100 g, 500 g and 1 kg. Not every oil lists every size, and some start at 50 g or 100 g. The right size depends on where the scent is in its life, not on which pack looks cheapest. The table converts each size into candles and into the CSI 468 you need beside it.

Read the middle column when you order. A single 1 kg of oil needs 11.5 kg of coconut-soy wax, which is a 10 kg bag plus a 1 kg and a 500 g bag. Makers often buy a kilo of oil and a kilo of wax together, then discover the wax runs out after nine candles. Add 3–5% for pour loss and test burns as a working assumption. If you plan to test at 10%, a 100 g bottle makes five candles, not 6.25; the load guide shows every step.

The 15 g premium

Across the catalogue, the 15 g carries a median 23.1% premium per gram over the same oil's 100 g, and on some oils much more. Orchard Pear is a clear case: ₹7.00/g at 15 g against ₹3.80/g at 100 g, a 84.2% premium. Poured into coconut-soy candles from testers, its oil costs ₹112.02 per candle; from the 100 g it costs ₹60.80. That is ₹51.22 more on every candle for buying small.

Above 100 g the curve flattens. The 50 g and 100 g of most oils are within 1% per gram of each other, and 52 of 91 oils price the kilo within 1% of the 100 g. Twenty-four oils do show a kilo saving of 5% or more — Mango Coconut 20.7%, Honeydew Melon 22.0%, Jasmine 8.8%, Fresh Strawberries 6.3% — and a few run the other way, such as Love Spell and Pomegranate Splash, whose kilos cost fractionally more per gram than their 100 g. So the reliable saving is one step: from 15 g to 50 g or 100 g.

A costed first order

Here is a realistic first coconut-soy order: two scents, twelve 200 g candles of each, at an 8% test-ladder midpoint. Each scent needs 192 g of oil, so two 100 g bottles per scent cover it with 8 g to spare for a test pot. The 24 candles need 4,416 g of wax, or about 4,593 g with a 4% allowance, which is one 5 kg bag of CSI 468. The oils are Lavender, near the top of CSI's best-selling sort, and Orchard Pear, one of the value oils.

The order costs ₹190.00 more in coconut soy than in soy chunks, all of it in the wax bag. Counting only the materials the 24 candles actually use, each candle costs ₹267.51 in CSI 468 against ₹260.52 in soy chunks, before labour, packaging, freight and GST. You finish with 8 g of each oil, about 584 g of wax and 26 wicks left over for re-tests.

Before you check out

A few checks save most of the reorders and surprises that follow a first coconut-soy order.

Check the stock line on every size. Some oils are missing a size on the pull date — the Vetiver 1 kg, the Chocolate Fudge 100 g, most sizes of Coffee Blast and Moca Coffee. Seven oils have no size in stock at all. A price you cannot buy is not a price, so check the product page before building a costing on it. Ask for the wax's stated maximum load. We do not publish one for CSI 468, Premium Coconut Soy Wax or Coconut Wax in this series. Ask for the paperwork at the time of ordering: GST invoice, MSDS and IFRA documentation are available on request, and the IFRA certificate is where an individual oil's usage limits live — we do not quote them here.
