What BB & WTD said. Oh and include some citrus.

so so far we have bay rum, sandalwood, and citrus/menthol..

any more advances?

Never had the pleasure of a bay rum in any description, so Bay Rum would be my #1 choice, followed by the Neroli

 

[Uncle Bertie]

to clarify, it might make your job easier to to create essentially a single fragrance soap, rather than trying to balance lots of contrasting scents like my favourite, bay rum.

I think I've got a pretty good bay rum recipe now. citrus/menthol is an easy one, as in lavender or sandalwood or neroli.

 

[Uncle Bertie]

surprise us then!

Surprises work for me Would make the testing process all the more interesting, guess the scent

 

[mikebrownington]

Mentholated lemon would be my vote, followed by anything else mentholated [emoji2]

 

[mikebrownington]

Or a surprise, a surprise would be nice!

My personal preference would be Bay Rum but I will go with the general consensus.

single simple frag for me - lavender. That said, i had a sniff of the 1st bay rum soap and it's really settled into a nice scent.

Total agreement

Surprise sounds good. The only thing I'd say is that it might be worth trying quite a delicate scent to see how it comes across. With the other soaps, I think the background scent can overpower the main one. If the cause is the lanolin, it might work better this time.

I love surprises - with enough warning! The stronger the scent the better for me.

I slipped James a sample of B&M Beaudelaire, he knows just how intense a scent can be ;-)
