Application in Handmade Candles and Creative Crafts:

• Scented Candles (Handmade): Can be added to candle wax at a low percentage for a very subtle, natural, forest-like undertone, particularly when combined with complementary essential oils or fragrance oils for a stronger scent profile. It does not replace a dedicated fragrance oil but can enhance the natural aspect.
• Wax Melts: Similar to candles, it can provide a delicate, natural aroma.
• Aromatherapy Diffuser Blends (Water-based): Its water solubility makes it suitable for creating water-based room sprays or diffuser blends, offering a fresh, forest-like ambiance.
• Decorative Scented Sachets/Potpourri: Can be sprayed onto dried botanical elements for a natural, subtle scent.
• DIY Room Sprays and Linen Mists: Creates refreshing and invigorating mists for home or fabric, bringing the essence of nature indoors.
