Monkey Farts - WTH

[kitkat_pro]

Ok so I got my order of 1oz scents from NG today and is it just me or does monkey farts smell like child flavoured banana antibiotics? :shock:

Everyone raves about this scent, but I truly wanted to gag, all I could think of after was my mom standing infront of me and telling me to take my medacine cause I needed it to make me feel better.

I've never smelled Monkey Farts, but I have a Cherries & Cream FO that i think smells like cough syrup. I want to gag when I smell it, but I have friends who LOVE it. WTH?

Perhaps only those of us who were sick a lot when we were kids smell medicine in otherwise nice fruity fo's. There has to be a nice amoxil fo out there, perfect for a nice pink bar. lol!!!

too funny..... my 7 yr old little cousin and I made a candle (she picked Monkey farts).... She loved it and then when she brought the candle to her dad and the first thing he said is it smells like something you would give a kid in a soap just so they would take a bath.

I haven't had many people say they liked it .... But, when I mixed it with my grapefruit it did smell a heck of a lot better.....LOL

I can't bring myself to say or even type the word... I would have to rename it Monkey's Uncle or Monkey Business :? .

I've got a sample of NG's right here, and to me it smells like a blend of bananas and BO.

I knew a with a lady who owned a gift shop and she bought everything she could find with the word "fart" attached to it. Of course she had monkey fart and duck fart lotions and soaps. She seemed to want to cater to the redneck gag-gift crowd. She didn't care what anything smelled like, she said the name drew them in, since she painted "GET YOUR MONKEY FARTS HERE" on her store window.

IMHO...if they had, none of would be talking about it. I think it turned out to be a brilliant marketing move.

I have some NG and everyone loved it in the melt and pour soap I made.
In fact while I was wrapping up a bunch my soaps, my mom was here visiting and she stole one,,lol.

Maybe if you try it in a small batch you might like it?

Of course Monkey Farts is going to smell like BANANA. It is a monkey FART. LOL! I have smelled this scent, but will never sell anything with such a name. I don't know what the big deal is with the scent either.

Mine is from Canwax and I really like it! It does smell like banana but it also smells a lot like pineapple, so it doesn't remind me so much of the banana medicine we took when we were kids!

 

[hem06]

I have the one from goatsmilkskincare, oob it smelled like medicine--barf. Soaped it smells awesome!!

Ok, I take back my previous comment on this. I had said, I bought my bottle of MF at Natures garden and loved it as does everyone else who has smelled it in my soap.

I was mistaken I just received an order from NG which included a bottle of MF and in no way does it smell like the one I had. I agree with you, does not smell that great at all. I am still going to try it and see how it smells in soap.
My original bottle of MF came from Scents of Pariadise, although I can't find it on the site. I had purchased it from a local supplier that sells Scents of Paradise products.

I think mine smells pretty nice but I didn't take banana flavored medicine when I was a kid.
Our medicine usually tasted listed cherry or grape or that orange aspirin flavor. :shock:

You know, it's actually a good FO to learn with because it plays nice in the pot .. And I'm sure she will love it!

REALLY!?!?
It took me THREE batches to get it to not seize!

However I use it in laundry detergent and B&B and it's my very best seller, bar none!
