Another Corn Husrkers Lotion Thread

[Omak]

So I got some CHL and added some Lime EO, but wanted to maybe make other scents too. One with coconut is what I'm thinking right now but more might be to follow. There is no Coconut EO, what I need is a fragrance oil, yes? Where would I get one of these? Is coconut oil scented? I came across this (http://www.thebodyshop-usa.com/body-...fying-oil.aspx) in my search, ingredients are below. Does this sound alright based on ingredients?

Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (Emollient), Dicaprylyl Carbonate (Skin-Conditioning Agent), Sclerocarya Birrea Seed Oil (Skin Conditioning Agent), Parfum/Fragrance (Fragrance), Cocos Nucifera Oil/Cocos Nucifera (Coconut) Oil (Emollient), Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis Oil/Prunus Amygdalus Dulcis (Sweet Almond) Oil (Skin-Conditioning Agent), Aleurites Moluccana Seed Oil (Emollient), Tocopherol (Antioxidant), Pentaerythrityl Tetra-Di-t-Butyl Hydroxyhydrocinnamate (Antioxidant), Coumarin (Fragrance Ingredient), Linalool (Fragrance Ingredient), Limonene (Fragrance Ingredient), Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil/Helianthus Annuus (Sunflower) Seed Oil (Emollient), Ascorbyl Palmitate (Antioxidant).

Why not the EO? http://www.amazon.com/Coconut-Pure-...5560539&sr=8-7&keywords=coconut+essential+oil

Well I admit I'm a bit confused, I thought I had read there is no such thing as an essential oil. Many searches come up with coconut oil but I'm not sure if there is any difference in the oils or a keyword I should be looking for.

Anyone?

I don't know about the coconut oil, but I mix my CH with my aftershaves in the winter and it works well.

+1 I would think it would be easier to find a coconut/lime AS and then mix it with a drop of CHL with a splash of the AS in your hands and then simply apply it.

What I was hoping for was to make small bottles of different scents available whenever i want. Coconut was just the first and I asked because I'm not sure what people use to scent something coconut.
