Spring Bloom, Honestly Crafted
$48.45$42.57Save 12%
Lilac Blossom Oil is a composed fragrance built from botanical extracts and infused aromatics to capture Syringa vulgaris in full bloom, since a true steam-distilled lilac oil does not exist. Expect a soft, powdery, springlike character: purple florals, green stems, and a whisper of almond sweetness.
Honest by design. Lilac blossoms are destroyed by steam distillation, so this composition is crafted from botanical extracts and infused aromatics rather than sold as a nonexistent pure distillate.
Purity you can verify. Every batch is checked against our published Certificate of Analysis before it ships out.
Sized for any project. Available from a 0.5 oz sampler bottle up to a 400 lb bulk drum for production runs.

Ordering in Bulk?
We happily fill bulk orders for lilac oil, from candle studios to boutique perfumers. Every size, whether a 0.5 oz sampler or a 400 lb drum, is blended to the same standard. Formulators, makers, and resellers are always welcome here.
Blend lilac oil into soy or paraffin wax for a springlike candle or melt that fills a room with soft, powdery floral warmth without a hint of harshness.
Lilac Blossom Oil is a concentrated botanical composition, not a finished cosmetic product. Dilute to 0.5% to 2% in a carrier oil before skin contact, and patch test on a small area first. Keep out of reach of children and pets, away from eyes, and do not take internally. Store the bottle capped in a cool, dim area away from strong heat.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Lilac Blossom Oil a pure, single-note extract? ▾
No single lilac essential oil exists in commerce; the blossoms are destroyed by steam distillation before any scent survives. Ours is a composed oil built from botanical extracts and infused aromatics to recreate Syringa vulgaris honestly, and every batch is documented in our published Certificate of Analysis.
Is this made from the common lilac, or a different variety? ▾
This oil is composed to reflect Syringa vulgaris, the common lilac found in gardens across the country, rather than a rarer cultivar. It is not related to synthetic lilac fragrance oils that skip botanical material entirely; ours starts from real extracts and infused aromatics.
What does lilac oil actually smell like? ▾
Expect a soft, powdery, springlike floral: fresh purple blossoms, green stems, and a touch of almond sweetness over a clean musky base. It performs as a heart note and pairs naturally with rose, violet leaf, and light citrus in a blend.
How much should I dilute it for use on skin? ▾
Keep lilac oil between 0.5% and 2% of the total blend when mixing into a carrier oil or lotion for skin contact, and always patch test first. It is a concentrated botanical composition, not a finished skincare product on its own.
What sizes are available if I need larger quantities? ▾
Lilac oil comes in nine sizes, starting at 0.5 oz and scaling all the way to 400 lbs, so hobby makers and wholesale buyers order from the same bottle. Larger sizes suit candle studios, soap makers, and resellers working at production volume.
Does buying a larger size save money per ounce? ▾
Yes. Per-ounce cost drops steadily as size increases, and the 400 lb size works out to less than half the per-ounce price of the 0.5 oz bottle. It is worth stepping up a size once you know you will use the oil regularly.
Which size should I start with? ▾
A 0.5 oz or 1 oz bottle is plenty for testing a candle or perfume formula. Once you know how much you use, step up to 8 oz or 16 oz for regular projects, and reserve the 5 lb and larger sizes for production-scale making or resale.
How fast does my order ship, and how do I check out? ▾
Orders ship within 1 to 2 business days of purchase. Bulk sizes of 5 lbs and up may need a little extra handling time before they leave our facility. Checkout runs through our Shopify store, so you can use any major card or supported payment method.
What color and texture should I expect from the bottle? ▾
Lilac oil is a pale, clear liquid with a light, easy-pouring viscosity similar to other blended fragrance oils. Keep it capped in a dim, steady-temperature spot, since warmth and strong light exposure will fade the floral top notes over time.
