Sample your essential and fragrance oils as well as finished perfumes the way professional perfumers do: use a professional perfume test strip! The thin end may be inserted into a narrow vial, the thick paddle end may be inserted into wider vials or the scent may be sprayed on that area. These are professional grade, pure perfume testers free of any additives. Always use the same tester strip for the same product, do not mix them, and do not mix tester strips from different vendors. Discard when finished.<p><p>
Proper way of sampling scents: Label the strip on the end which will not be dipped into the oil. Dip the unlabeled end of the test strip into the oil. Bring it about 3" from your nose and smell it. Make written notes if you wish, set the strip aside. Smell it again in an hour, you will notice the scent has most likely changed, make notes once again. Smell it again in a couple of hours. Never bring the strip directly in contact with your nose, you will overwhelm your sense of smell! If you're smelling several oils at one time, clear your nose by smelling dried coffee grounds.<p><p>
Dimensions: 5” x 1/2". Paddle-type paper testing strip.imensions: 5 x 1/2"

When you try to smell perfumes straight from the bottle they can be so strong that you quickly overwhelm your senses and that can mess with how something smells to you. These work great for dipping or spritzing with perfumes to get a more accurate sniff. Stock up! I went through them quickly and they are well worth the money!

HOW PRODUCTS ARE DISPENSED...
BOTTLING/PACKAGING:
Essential oils: Are sold only in the quantities/net weights listed on our website. These oils are shipped to us by the distiller or manufacturer in industry-standard metal or plastic containers and that’s how we ship them to you.
Carrier oils and most other liquids are dispensed in individual HDPE plastic pails or containers with some type of handle, each container holds the purchased net weight of liquid.
Soft butters such as Horsetail and Almond are dispensed in plastic HDPE pails w/metal handles; those butters may remain inside the pails indefinitely when properly stored. Hard butters such as Cocoa are dispensed factory-wrapped in plastic and placed inside a box. Castile Gel is dispensed in a self-contained cubitainer with pouring spout.
NOTE: While the packaging methods mentioned above are generalized, we reserve the right to dispense and ship in any available container. If a customer at any time feels more comfortable transferring an essential or carrier oil to glass, this should be done.
Raw materials/ingredients are sold and dispensed by weight. Many customers ask how many ounces are in a pound, there are 16 ounces in one pound. These are not fluid ounces, they are ounces by weight.
HOW TO STORE: EOs, FOs and BUTTERS should be stored in tightly-sealed containers away from direct light and heat. Some EOs and FOs could be highly flammable, keep away from open flames and from varnished or wood surfaces. Keep all liquids and powders you purchase from Camden-Grey tightly capped and away from the reach of children, the elderly or infirm and pets. Refrigerating butters could adversely affect the consistency of a butter, please join our Forum if you need to learn how to handle, work with and store products.
