Need help w/Oregon Trails' Rosemary Mint

[Maythorn]

This seems very light and has a bit of a medicinal note to it. Does it do better soaped?

 

[paillo]

did you try it with candles or something else? i've tried the Nature's Garden version in candles -- it is very light and a little too sweet for my taste. will be curious to hear if others have soaped it.

 

[Maythorn]

I wouldn't call it sweet really. I put some on a qtip swab to see about the drydown quality of this scent and well, not very nice and hardly there.

I haven't tried OT's rosemary mint but have been looking for a good one. I've tried at least two others that were super light, can't remember off the top of my head where they came from. After being disappointed a couple of times I tried making my own with a blend of FO's and EO's and I'm still not happy. If it's light OOB chances are it will be even lighter in soap.

I think it soaps beautifully.
I use it in my gardener's soap, with pumice, and it's much loved.

I've always used WSP's Rosemary Mint and loved it. Great balanced fragrance and sticks well. But I'm looking for another source. I'll try Carebear's suggestion myself.

Glad to hear it! And what a neat gardner's soap. I was thinking I might add some spearmint and rosemary essential oils to it but if it doesn't need anything and sticks, great. I like pumice soaps a lot.

I've never actually tried anything from WSP. But when I do I want the Vetyvert I think and maybe try that Carribean Coconut too.

Thanks.

I know that medicinal hint you mention. I first fell in love with the scent when I bought it from Elements Bath & Body but recently ordered it from NG because I was ordering from them. NG has that medicinal hint....Elements does not. If you are comitted to getting the scent, You gotta try EBB's... its perfect. While you are at it...try EBB's Tranquil Waters. AWESOME & holds very good in CP.

They both sound wonderful. I love fresh natural scents.
