I'd start with .5 oz ppo, but then I always start with .5 oz regardless of the manufacturer. I adjust the amount after testing according to how well it sticks.
 
I would contact them to see what the msds is for the fragrances you purchased. Until then, if they are pretty common fragrances I too would start with .5 ppo.
 
I just had a look, and so far, I've only been able to find 3 FOs with a specific usage rate mentioned: Buzzy Buttermilk Bath (.7 oz. ppo); Chai Tea (.5 oz. ppo); and Tradewinds (.5 oz. ppo). She has a contact page, so I would try contacting her to find out the usage rate of the fragrances you are using.

Edited to add that of the FOs I have from them, I use a range of anywhere between .3 oz ppo to 1 oz ppo. It's very rare that I ever use 1 oz ppo, though. For the most part, .75 oz. ppo works fine for me.

Thx for the input! I'll probably try .7 on the light weight scents and .5 on the heavy ones and see what that does. I'll practice on my 1 pound mold before I fully commit.
I am going to try your recommendations for omh Irish lass. I got it from Oregon trail and the milk sugar kisses from dsystar. I have to say, not liking sweet scents AT ALL, they both smell WONDERFUL!!! I can't WAIT to try it! Once I get this butterfly swirl fiasco I've been working on done, it's my next project, goat's milk omh with the combo!

I hope you like the combo as much as I do! For me, it makes the perfect OMH. Let me know how it goes!
