Unlike essential oils, our fragrance oils offer a wider range of artistic scents—from warm Vanilla and rich Coffee to fresh Sea Breeze. Whether you are pouring soy wax candles, creating cold process soaps, or simply looking for a long-lasting scent for your diffuser, HIQILI fragrance oils deliver powerful "hot throw" and stability.
Phthalate-free and skin-safe (when diluted), they are the perfect choice for makers and scent lovers alike.
Premium Fragrance Oils: The Art of Scent Crafting
Welcome to HIQILI's definitive collection of Premium Fragrance Oils (often referred to as aroma oils or scented oils). Unlike single essential oils that are limited to what nature can extract, fragrance oils open up a world of limitless creativity. Meticulously formulated by expert perfumers, our oils blend pure essential oils with skin-safe synthetic aroma compounds to create complex, stable, and long-lasting scents.
Whether you are a professional artisan looking for reliable candle fragrance oils with excellent hot throw, or a DIY enthusiast crafting signature perfume oils and soaps, our collection is engineered for performance. Every bottle is phthalate-free, cruelty-free, and adheres to strict IFRA standards, ensuring safety without compromising on scent potency.
Best Aroma Oils for Diffusers & Burners
Create an inviting atmosphere in seconds. While essential oils are great for therapy, diffuser oils (fragrance oils) are the superior choice when your goal is to scent a large room effectively. Data shows that users searching for "oils for burners" and "electric diffusers" prefer fragrance oils for their consistency and "staying power."
How to Use in Home Fragrance:
- Ultrasonic Diffusers: Add 5-10 drops to water. Our oils are water-soluble compatible and won't clog high-quality devices. Ideal for scents like White Tea or Ocean Mist.
- Ceramic Oil Burners: Fragrance oils have a higher flash point than many essential oils, making them safer and longer-lasting in heat-based oil burners.
- Reed Diffusers: Combine our oils with a DPG-free diffuser base (ratio 20:80) to create luxury reed diffusers that last for months.
High-Performance Candle Making Fragrance Oils
For candle makers, the biggest challenge is achieving a strong "Hot Throw" (the scent released when burning). HIQILI oils are specifically tested for compatibility with Soy Wax, Beeswax, Paraffin, and Coconut blends.
Mastering the Scent Throw:
- Optimum Fragrance Load: We recommend a usage rate of 6% to 10%. This means for every 1 pound (16 oz) of wax, you should use approx. 1 to 1.6 oz of fragrance oil.
- Adding Temp: Add your oil at approximately 185°F (85°C) to ensure it binds perfectly with the wax molecules. Adding it too cool can lead to oil separation (syneresis).
- Curing Time: Allow your soy candles to cure for at least 1-2 weeks. This allows the fragrance oil and wax to fully integrate, resulting in a much stronger scent throw.
DIY Perfume Oils & Skin-Safe Applications
Did you know that perfume oil searches are skyrocketing? You can easily create your own designer-inspired scents at home. Our concentrated oils are the perfect base for body oil perfumes, solid perfumes, and bath products.
- Roll-On Perfume: Mix 20% fragrance oil with 80% carrier oil (like Jojoba or Fractionated Coconut Oil).
- Cold Process Soap: Our oils are tested for "trace" stability. We clearly mark oils that may cause acceleration or discoloration (due to Vanillin content), so you can plan your designs accordingly.
- Bath Bombs: Add 3-5% fragrance oil to your mix for a lush, aromatic bath experience.
Explore Our Signature Scent Families
Finding the right scent is a journey. We categorize our oils to help you find the perfect match for your mood or project:

- Fresh & Clean: Capture the essence of Clean Cotton, Sea Salt, or Rain Water. Ideal for bathroom diffusers and laundry products.
Comprehensive FAQ & Guide
What is the difference between Essential Oils and Fragrance Oils?
The primary difference lies in their source. Essential Oils are 100% natural plant extracts obtained via distillation, primarily used for therapeutic aromatherapy. Fragrance Oils are manufactured scents that may contain both natural and synthetic components. They are designed for artistic expression and performance, allowing for scents that don't exist in nature (like "Baby Powder" or "Ocean Breeze") and offering better stability in candles.
Are fragrance oils safe for skin?
Yes, HIQILI fragrance oils are skin-safe, but they are highly concentrated and should never be applied undiluted.
• For Body Oils/Perfume: Dilute to 2-5% in a carrier oil.
• For Soaps: Adhere to IFRA Category 9 limits (usually up to 5-10%).
Always perform a patch test on a small area of skin before full use.
Why is my candle scent not strong enough? (Troubleshooting)
A weak scent throw can be caused by several factors:
1. Not enough oil: Ensure you are using at least a 6% load (1 oz per lb).
2. Adding at wrong temp: If the wax is too cool, the oil won't bind. Add at ~185°F.
3. Not curing enough: Soy wax requires patience. Let it cure for 14 days.
4. Wrong wick size: If the melt pool isn't large enough, the scent won't release. Try a larger wick.
Do your oils contain Vanillin or Phthalates?
All HIQILI fragrance oils are 100% Phthalate-Free. However, some scents (especially bakery, vanilla, and heavy floral notes) naturally contain Vanillin. Vanillin may cause soaps and candles to discolor (turn tan or brown) over time. This is purely aesthetic and does not affect the scent's safety or quality. If color is critical, look for "Vanillin-Free" options in our collection.
Can I use these oils in a humidifier?
For ultrasonic diffusers (which use water and vibration), yes, our oils work perfectly. However, for old-school steam humidifiers or those with sensitive plastic tanks, we recommend checking the manufacturer's manual. Essential and fragrance oils can degrade certain types of cheap plastic over time.
What is the shelf life of fragrance oils?
When stored correctly (in a cool, dark place away from direct sunlight), our premium oils have a shelf life of 12 to 24 months. We use amber glass bottles specifically to protect the aromatic compounds from UV degradation.
