Need a Chocolate FO that lasts!

[KathyB]

Hi, all. I asked previously about Vanilla and now I am on to chocolate. I have been wanting to make a chocolate perfume, and also use chocolate in melt and pour soaps and scrubs. I have ordered many chocolates from many suppliers. Some of them smell fake and some smell fabulous. The fabulous ones, however, either turn musty in mp soap or they fade after a few weeks. I don't know why this is happening. I don't know if it is the quality of my soap (I use SFIC exclusively) or the quality of the FO's. I also made about a month ago a perfume blend with a chocolate that smelled amazing. I discovered today that the chocolate scent has totally faded from that perfume. If anyone out there uses a chocolate fo that smells good and plays well with others, please let me know. I would really appreciate it!!! BTW I have the same problem with coffee scents. They smell drinkable OOB but either disappear or turn musty in soap. TIA

Have never found a good coffee FO and after testing about a dozen have given up, it's in the same category as coconut FO. Vanilla FO is heading to the forget about it pile for me too.

I am currently testing SW's Belgian Chocolate. I'm away from home currently but it's been curing a month or so now. I will try to remember to post about it when I get back. It was smelling good for a while.

Also have their Madagascar Vanilla curing and so far the vanilla lover in my life doesn't like it even though it has really good reviews.

SOS's Chocolate Decadence gets good reviews but I haven't tried it yet. Chocolate, Coconut, Vanilla - I've yet to find ones that don't morph and/or fade.

Candle Science makes a good coffee FO.

I love Bramble Berries Italian Spiced Chocolate. At 2% it lasts and lasts and lasts!

Has anyone tried the Chocolate Mousse that Majestic Mtn Sage sells?

My favorite coffee scent is CandleScience's Fresh Coffee.

LOVE "Dutch Chocolate" from Symphony Scents!
Lasts and lasts and lasts and makes you want to eat your soap!

Chocolate Brownie fo from Cierra Candle is to die for! works very well in cp too! When I use that fo my son thinks I am making brownies and comes running in the kitchen all excited, he then finds out I am making soap and leaves all bummed out.

Peak's Hot Cocoa. Sticks like glue and smells like a good quality cocoa. Top seller for me.

I have also used Peak's Hot Cocoa and people really like it. Smells like Tootsie rolls
