Fragrance oil recommendations for shampoo and conditioner?

[MaryWaldman]

I just did a sample batch of shampoo and condition with Lavender and Fresh Herbs FO (from Candles & Supplies) at a scant 1%. Test subjects are not loving it, although it's a popular FO in my cold process shea butter soaps. Comments are "smells good in the bottle but not on my hair", "kind of musty", "scent is heavy".

What are some hair care appropriate FOs that would appeal to both men and women?

Why not check the reviews at WholesaleSupplies.com or Brambleberry to see what their customers recommend?

I have checked BB and WS but there are hundreds of FO's and the opinions are all over the place. As a member of SoapmakingForum I was hoping to get the recommendations of other members here. Am I in the wrong place?

Here are the favorite scents of my shampoo and conditioner bar users:

Fresh Ginger Lime from WSP - this is the absolute fave of everyone who has used it.
Peche de Vigne from Oregon Trails
Oatmeal Milk & Honey from WSP (although I call it Cherry Almond bc that's what most folks smell)
