I have not noticed any scent left behind when I use the oven.

My hubby gets upset when I do M&P in the microwave, I always say "Oh gee, we better get some soap to use to wash the soap out of the microwave 
:roll:. " He says it makes his food taste like whatever was the last fragrance I used :? .

I've CP/HP'd many times and no residual scents left in the oven.

well... that's just men
A lot of people clean their ovens with chemicals... I'd worry more about that in stead of a little soap :wink:

I put almost every batch of CP in the oven to ensure gel and my oven never smells like soap or the fragrances I use!

yeah, my hubby used to freak out over the oven use too.
here's how to turn it into an "non-issue":
after soaping, place 1/2 cup baking soda scattered on an oven-proof plate and leave there until he wants to use the oven. (then i use it when i wash clothes.)
he'll be so distracted over the baking soda/plate thing that he'll forget about the soap in the oven!
also fresh lemon rind will do the same thing!
for microwave cleaning i boil water with a shot of lemon juice in it. let it sit for 1/2 hr after shutting off.
the steam lifts all the grease and bits of food off like magic and leaves the "mikey" smelling clean and fresh.

Excellent advice Monet!
I don't use the oven to force gel.....it smells like what I cooked last in there and I worry about that affecting my soap :roll:

I use the oven to force gel most of the time, and after I've made my soap, the next time I use the oven for cooking food, I do sometimes detect a slight soapy smell as the oven heats up. But I do like Monet said, I put bicarb in an ovenproof bowel, and just leave it in there for a while. It absorbs any odours, then you can just use the bicarb for whatever, I go and clean the toilet with it.I know my life is so exciting. :shock:
