Product Notice: This fragrance has been retired. However, we have two great alternatives we think you’ll love: Tonka and Oud or Santal and Coconut.

Mahogany Shea fragrance oil wraps you in a warm blanket of earthy woods and creamy shea. A top note of sweet almond gives way to the slight nutty aromas of shea and coconut. Natural woody notes of sandalwood and cedar are smoothed out with light musk and tonka bean base notes. The final result is a fragrance that’s warm, cozy, and beautiful all year round.

Create soft, inviting candles and reed diffusers for any space with this scent. Mahogany Shea is also an exceptionally soothing fragrance in soaps, lotions, and body care creations.

This fragrance is infused with natural essential oils, including cedarwood, cedar leaf, patchouli, and olibanum.

Blends well with: Lavender, Mango and Coconut Milk, Tonka and Oud, Spiced Honey and Tonka, Blood Orange, Golden Hour

Alternative branding ideas: Oatmeal Shea, Sandalwood and Shea, White Musk and Cedar

Suggested colors: Ivory

Oil Temperature 113ºF (45°C)

We experienced a very slight acceleration but no separation. Once we added the lye water to the fragranced oils and hand stirred a few times, a light emulsion was created. Based on this we expected more acceleration with the stick blender but it very slowly came to a light trace; we continued to stick blend to a medium trace. The batter stayed nice and fluid and did not start to thicken as we poured into the mold. Overall the fragrance was easy to work with, but we would recommend bringing your batter to a very light trace before adding fragrance to avoid a possible false trace. After 24 hours the soap had discolored a light tan shade and almost reached a full gel. We observed a large amount of glycerin rivers throughout the bars which gave them a very unique look. The scent was nice and strong with a slightly nutty character. After 30 days the soap had discolored to a pale yellow shade and the scent was subtle but had a sweet nutty character that is very pleasant.

Positive NRG Candles 2024-11-12

My sentiments are the same as the other clients....I went to the Durham Candle Science and saw all the 1oz Mahogany Shea bottles on sale due to being discontinued and my heart sank!!! This is one of my supporters' favorite as well so I bought like 20 bottles and will probably go back to get more! There is no other fragrance like Mahogany Shea! PLEASE RECONSIDER!!!

PLEASE Do NOT Discontinue
Kat Ponds 2024-10-21

I agree with all who are requesting for candle science to reconsider discontinuing Mahogany Shea. This is one my best selling scent in my business. In addition, I LOVE that it's phthalate free! Please do NOT discontinue.

Diane - Alexander Dionne LLC 2024-10-17

This is one of "the" most sophisticated and elegant scents in your line (AND mine too!!!) Why would you do this? It's one of my best sellers. Bring it BACK!!! Please and thank you. Huge disappointment. Ugh...

Disappointed with Discontinuation
Bright Sunshine Candle Co. LLC 2024-10-08

I agree with everyone else this is a staple scent for two or more of my candle line and the two that you are suggesting replacing it, does not compare and actually I use the Tonka & Oud with the Mahogany Shea. If there is any way to bring this scent back, please do.
