What Is scent and sip?

We are a small-batch, premium manufacturer, and retailer of fragranced home & body products.  Every thing is hand crafted & just about everything is made to order. 

At Scent & Sip, you create personally scented home, bath, hair care, and body products.  We have over 150 fragrances for you to blend with.  You mix those into over 35 Scentable products.  

The "Sip" part of our name is due to our BYOB policies.  You are welcome to bring in the beverage of your choice while you enjoy this unique handcrafted experience and make great smelling stuff! >>Sorry, no food or drinks in-store during the COVID crisis.  It is a bummer! But, those are the new temporary rules.

After Covid Restrictions lifted:
Sure!  We welcome you to enjoy some snacks while you make your Scentables.  Please finish creating your Scentables before you snack.  We want to be sure you have time to create what you would like. 

While we do have a few tables set aside for your snacks, please refrain from bringing in full meals, and large trays of food.  Remember that our open-area sessions are for 90 minutes.  This typically isn't enough time for a full meal and creating your perfect scent. If you would like more time to enjoy your meal at our location our additional seating charge is $100 per hour for your group.  This may not always be available, but if we can accommodate your needs we will certainly try!

You can also have food delivered to the store from many local restaurants. Feel free to ask us for recommendations. This is a great option for a private party! 

What age is this appropriate for?

​If you can pour a glass of milk you can blend just about any of our products.  If help is needed, we are here to help!  We are proud to have hosted birthday parties from 4 to 101!

What kind of custom scents can I create?

The sky's the limit! We have over 150 fragrance oils to blend with. Our recommendation is that you blend 2 - 4 scents together for a perfectly balanced blend. 

​We will add or change some fragrances seasonally.  If we do not have something you are looking for please let us know.

We would love to turn your container into a candle. Pricing is $2.50 per oz of wax. We will not pour candles that are less then 4 oz.
Please be sure the container is flame safe & non-porous.  If you are unsure, just give us a call or drop by to chat about it.  Please bring your container in clean.

Do you use essential oils in your products?

No, we use fragrance oils. The FDA considers the ingredients of fragrance oils a "trade secret" so ingredients for individual fragrances cannot be provided.  We will gladly share the ingredients of any of our bases.
Please note essential oils are generally not safe to burn in candles or heat.  If you see this on a candle label please be cautious and never burn these candles around pets. In addition, essential oils have different flash points in candles and can burn too hot to be safe.

What is your Return Policy?

We will refund, in the method of the original payment, within 30 days of purchase with a receipt.  We will also exchange the product if that is more desirable. Sorry, we can not refund or exchange custom scented products.  Your satisfaction is important to us.  If you have any problems or concerns with any of our products or services please let us know.
