The subject merchandise consists of four products, as described below: The first product is a room spray. The ingredients are listed as aroma, aqua, ethyl alcohol, perfume, alpha-isomethyl ionone, benzyl salicylate, and linalool. It comes in a dark green bottle with the words “Aroma Natural” inscribed in the front. You indicate that it provides a pleasant odor to living areas such as the home and office. The second product under consideration is a poured wax candle. The candle is made from natural soy wax infused with fragrance oils and features a cotton wick. It comes in a dark green, tapered glass jar with a wood lid. Per your correspondence, both the wax and wick are sourced from Turkey. The third product is a reed diffuser. This item consists of a small, frosted glass bottle containing fragrance oil with reed sticks (diffuser sticks). The words “Aroma Natural” are inscribed in the front of the bottle. The reed sticks absorb the scented oil from the container and release the fragrance into the air. The glass bottle, the fragrance oil and the diffuser sticks are packaged together for retail sale. The fourth product is fragrance oil. You indicate that this item will be used with air diffuser machines for ambient scenting. The applicable subheading for the room spray and reed diffuser will be 3307.49.0000, Harmonized Tariff Schedule of the United States (HTSUS), which provides for “Preparations for perfuming or deodorizing rooms, including odoriferous preparations used during religious rites: Other.” The general rate of duty is 6%. The applicable subheading for the candle in a glass holder will be 3406.00.0000, HTSUS, which provides for “Candles, tapers and the like.” The general rate of duty is Free.
