I won't use them as the whole of the fragrancing, but sort of to 'boost'

 

whatever absolute I am using.

 

 

 

and I figure one oz of floral wax is the equivalent of 1/2 oz of eo or

 

absolute.

 

 

 

so... in a six lb batch, let's say, that would normally call for three

 

ounces of blended eo's, I might use 2.5 oz of the eo and one oz of

floral wax.

 

 

 

melted with one of the carrier oils and added at light trace.
