The IFRA rate is the safety rate. The percentage is a maximum. This is how much can come in contact with your skin when making this particular product without causing irritation. Even if a percentage is high, it doesn't mean you have to use the maximum.
The percentage of fragrance oil is a calculation of the total. If you make a 1 kg soap or candle and the maximum percentage is 5%, the maximum you can use is the following:
1000 grams x 0.05 = 50 milliliters of fragrance oil.

Heerlijke geur, doet het heel goed in cp zeep. Blijft ook super goed ruiken.
Kayleigh (verified owner) –
Hele lekker geur. Is heel zoet. Dus voor de zoete liefhebbers een aanrader.

Ich mag es zwar üppig, aber dieser Duft ist mir dann doch etwas zu Aufdringlich. Sehr süß und intensiv, aber gut. Sparsam verwendet, denke ich wird das Endprodukt ganz gut.

Gut geeignet für Frauen. Süsser blumiger Duft. Lässt sich gut verarbeiten
