    How do I make a fragrance-free cream 
    If not possible what are the masking agents I can use to overcome the smell of other hard chemicals 
    Thankyou

    Just don’t add fragrance.
    Or, reduce the level of ingredients that smell bad.
    Or you might try Cyclodextrins to absorb the odor.

    hi  khizra 

    I guess it depends on the selling regen but for example, in Europe, you could add stuff like Rose Wax or Jasmin Wax (and so on) to your Formulations. They don’t have to be mentioned as Perfum but have the nice odor of roses or Jasmin. of course that scent is not as stable as a perfume would be but it could be a nice alternative. you can although switch out oils to some that seem nicer like nut oil or a Plumkern oil which has a nice odor. 
    but you need to be sure than about antioxidation agent that it will not get ransom over time

    hope that is a good addition to Perry’s suggestions.
