Fragrance Oils: I thru M
An icy blast of cool, clean scent guaranteed to make you sit up and take notice. Essential oils of eucalyptus and peppermint are combined with synthetic menthol to produce a mind-clearing, eye-opening humdinger. Cools you down in summer and heats you up in winter (I know that sounds impossible, but that's what they always say about down comforters, so I'm going with it . . .). Flashpoint: 141F.
Here are some terrific Icecap Fragrance blending ideas:
Citrus Ice
3 parts Sweet Cakes Clementine Fragrance
1 part Sweet Cakes Icecap Fragrance
This citrus blend with a cool blast is great for hot summer days. It's truly a unisex blend -- men love it. Talk about a "wake you up in the morning" shower! You may want to adjust the Icecap, depending on how "cool" you want the blend to be. I don't recommend more than 5 parts Clementine to 2 parts Icecap, though. Also, try blending Icecap with your favorite Sweet Cakes fruity fragrance to give it a cool, icy feel. Even pear fragrances get a boost with a dash of Icecap!

As soapmakers, it's hard not to like something this fresh and clean. Manly, yes, but consider changing the name and using it in your soaps and other products for people of all ages and sexes -- it's a classically clean, fresh scent. (2018 MOD)

A Sweet Cakes classic -- salty sea water, a kiss of kelp, and the clean scent of rain add up to a winning maritime combination!
A great unisex combination of sea and rain notes -- very strong and "Atlantic seaboard." TIP FOR COLD-PROCESS SOAPMAKERS: For extra texture and aesthetic appeal, take 2 sheets of nori (the dried seaweed sheets used to wrap sushi), cut them up into little pieces with a scissors, and soak them in a tablespoon of hot water. At thin trace, stir the nori "slush" and colorants into your batch. Add .7 oz. of Karen's Ocean Rain fragrance per lb. of fats/oils, stir to incorporate, and pour into prepared molds. The nori will turn bright green, but will eventually fade to a very organic-looking golden yellow. Or -- do nothing but scent your plain soap, candles, or toiletries with Karen's Ocean Rain, and they'll still go over big. Flashpoint: 172º F.
Sparkling, lemon-y, irresistible! Our dead-on copy of an international best-seller.
L'Occitane de Provence is a well-respected purveyor of fine soap and other high-quality body-care products. Verbena is their signature scent -- and with good reason, as its lemon-y freshness is a guaranteed day-brightener. Our very faithful reproduction begins with sparkling top notes of lemon, lemon, lemon and a little lime and peach, atop a base of rose, geranium, and green lemon leaves. The real secret to this fairly simple formula are the types of lemon oils used -- they're not cheap, but mon dieu! do they sparkle, scintillate, and dance. This fragrance is A-OK for use in CP soap (it turns it a pretty pale-yellow color) as well as all sorts of toiletries. The flashpoint makes it unsuitable for use in gel-wax candles, but it should work just fine in other types of wax. Flashpoint: 142º F
Not to sound like those cheesy ads for pseudo-designer body sprays, but it's true -- if you like our Lavender & Herbs fragrance or Sage, Sweetgrass & Cedar, you'll love Lavender & Cedar. Floral-woody top notes of lavender essential oil open the fragrance, along with natural oils of cedarleaf and rosemary. The theme continues with pure lavandin and cedarwood oils in the middle, leading to a sweet, earthy drydown thanks to essential oil of patchouli and a touch of musk. Flashpoint: 179º F. NOTE OF SPECIAL INTEREST: If you, as I, cherish your woollen garments and hate moths, try adding a capful of this fragrance to the rinse water when you wash woolly goodies. The lingering aroma -- besides being unappealing to moths -- is sheer heaven! Don't let me give you the impression that Lavender & Cedar is just for ski sweaters.
Here's a terrific men's blend:
Day at the Spa (masculine version)
2 parts Sweet Cakes Sapmoss (type) Fragrance
1 part Sweet Cakes Lavender & Cedar Fragrance Ooh la la, a day at the spa! This blend takes an already great fragrance (Sapmoss) and kicks it up a notch! Though you could use Lavender Breeze or lavender essential oil, the Lavender & Cedar gives the Sapmoss a cool, woody lift that is very masculine. While "Day at the Spa" may seem a little strong and too 'lavender-y' in the bottle, the final result in M&P soap, lotion, or shampoo/shower gel is a clean, woody, uplifting fragrance!

Lavender and chamomile essential oils are two of the most beloved of nature's essential oils, as they're both known to produce feelings of calm, peacefulness, and well-being.
Our Lavender & Chamomile fragrance includes generous amounts of natural essential oils of lavender and chamomile, so that this blend, which smells delightfully soothing, herbal, and fresh, also offers the aromatherapy benefits of a pure essential oil version, but at a tiny fraction of the price.
Because this scent contains no "perfumey" or "manufactured" notes, it's perfect for soap, candles, and any type of personal care product, like shampoo, lotion, and bath gel, for all ages and sexes. Truly a "universal" fragrance concept.
Flashpoint: >200º F.Our solution for people who like the idea of a lavender scent but find lavender essential oil a bit too medicinal or old-fashioned. The brilliant perfumer behind Lavender Breeze started with lavender EO but softened it with some airy, green top notes, then slipped in a floral heart of muguet and rose, and anchored the blend with musk and precious woods notes. The result? A unisex fragrance that's unmistakably lavender, but fresher and more appealing. Flashpoint: 173º F.
Lavender Breeze is amazingly versatile; here it plays a key part in a blend that we like to refer to as "not your grandmother's rose fragrance":
Elizabethan Rose
4 parts Sweet Cakes True Rose Fragrance
2 parts Sweet Cakes Lavender Breeze Fragrance
1 part Sweet Cakes Hyacinth Fragrance
An upscale, complex blend, with rich lemony top notes giving way to a green floral-herbal base full of wonderful, exotic things like marigold, jonquil, and vetiver. BOTTOM LINE: Intoxicating and complex -- absolutely nothing run-of-the-mill about this one. Flashpoint: >200º F.
Bright, clean citrus-y lemon is a timeless favorite in all types of personal-care products as well as candles, room fresheners, and potpourri -- give our ultra-fresh, ultra-likable version of this Bath & Body Works best-seller a try!
An uplifting blend of lemongrass, white vanilla, and woody sandalwood are melded with lemon zest, orange, and delicate jasmine blossom.

One of our top, top sellers, and of course the perfect fragrance for spring! A good lilac can be elusive -- but this one's the real deal. A best-seller at Sweet Cakes year after year, because it smells like the real thing, works beautifully in soap, and is strong, strong, strong. Flashpoint: >200º F.
Muy refrescante! Top notes of salty lime, plum, raspberry, apple, strawberry, and peach lead to a floral middle of rose and jasmine, with a sweet bottom of hay and vanilla. The perfect summertime lime fragrance -- true, fresh, and cooling, with just a touch of sweetness.
Flashpoint: 170º F.Our duplication of this top-seller from Victoria's Secret's "Garden Collection." Top notes of peach, mango, strawberry, and mandarin flow into a complex middle of apple blossom, rose, tamarind, and coconut milk. The fragrance is completed with smooth notes of musk, vanilla, and precious woods. Bottom Line: A very likable scent -- bursting with juicy peach and mango -- perfect for the hot, hot days of summer. And have you been to the Victoria's Secret website lately?? There's all kinds of pictures of ladies with their bosoms flying every which way. I do not suggest you go see it for yourself.

Note to cold-process soapers: We tested five Love Spell fragrances, and this is the only one that didn't develop an "off" note after full cure-time in CP soap.
Most magnolia fragrances are simple and sweet, but often overly so. *This* magnolia is sexy and intoxicating and complex -- with top notes of grapefruit, orange, ylang ylang, hyacinth, and freesia leading to a fruity-floral middle of tuberose, lilyof the valley, magnolia (of course!), and plum. Vanilla and musk in the bottom add stability and sultriness. A favorite flower of the South finally gets the treatment it deserves. BOTTOM LINE: The name says it all. Flashpoint: 154F.
Here's an upscale "cooling" magnolia blend:
Afternoon Delight
5 parts Sweet Cakes World's Best Magnolia Fragrance
2 parts Sweet Cakes Orange Blossom Fragrance
1 part Sweet Cakes Cucumber Melon (B&BW type) Fragrance A hot afternoon, and a blend that cooled the warm summer day! This blend is unique, and a bit risky, I'll admit. But the end result is a wonderful breath of fresh air. Blending tip: For a more floral blend, add one part True Rose. It will actually "warm" the blend up a bit.

Fruity, tropical, and sweet. Delightful on its own, or try blending it with our Raspberry, Mandarin Orange, or Fruity Vanilla fragrance oils. Flashpoint: 170º F.
The perfect fusion of sweet island mango and black Ceylon tea, with suppporting notes of pineapple, clementines, vanilla bean, and white musk. BOTTOM LINE: With two excellent mango fragrances already in our repertoire, we weren't looking for another but, this one was so good and so unusual that we couldn't pass it by. It has all the sweet, fruity irresistibility of mango, and the black tea notes add sophistication and complexity. Quite nice, and very unusual in a, "why didn't someone think of this sooner?" way. Flashpoint: >200º F.
Merry top notes of juicy orange, red raspberry and cranberry
lead to a yummy midsection of apple blossom, blackberry and strawberry finishing with a luscious base of blond woods and mistletoe. BOTTOM LINE:Have a Merry Berry Holiday Season!
Flashpoint: >200º F
The aroma of farm-fresh milk kissed with bottom notes of sweet honey, musk, and amber. Smoooooth and silky, with a wee touch of sexiness. BOTTOM LINE: Like a State Fair Dairy Princess in a bottle.
Flashpoint: 158º F.Our take on an international fragrance boutique best-seller -- an uplifting and modern version of a classic floriental blend with a hint of pink pepper to add complexity and spice.
A voluptuous floral blend with the scent of a late spring Oriental garden. Rich and complex, this fragrance has notes of pink peony, lemon, rose, cassis, pink pepper, and a fresh watery accord all atop a sweet, long-lasting drydown of amber, sandalwood and vetiver.
Essential Oils contained in this fragrance: Geranium, Lemon, VetiverFlashpoint: >200º F
