Oatmeal Milk & Honey

[carebear]

There are so many options for this scent type and they can be so different.
I now have Scent Works' OMH and to ME it's too cloying.

Suggestions?

I really like the one from Tony's. I've used WSP (OK) and the original soap dish (Too sweet, and had a chemically 'aftertaste').

I have WSP's curing and it's nice and I'd say medium strong now I just hope it doesn't fade too much more.

I bought one from BB recently and I am most disappointed as I find the scent overpowering and artificial-smelling, and it does not remind me of oatmeal or milk or honey! :?

I haven't yet found one that isn't too sweet and cloying, So I do an original, adding oatmeal, goats' milk and honey.....it's faint in scent, but rather nice.

Has it cured yet? I hate BB's out of the bottle, but it is my favorite (and best seller) in soaps, lotions, and butters. I use no more than .5 or .7 ppo for CP or it's too strong. .25 ppo for MP, even less for lotions, etc.

I agree this one was very strong OOB but mellowed nicely. Actually a family favorite now.

I used it in MP so maybe it is better suited to CP!?

After trying OMH from probably 8 diff places I finally fell in love w/ Bitter Creek North's. I could drink it! I have carried it for 7 or 8 years now. I would be willing to send you sniffie if you like.

Tabitha - sending you a PM!

I just made a batch with Crafters Choice OMH Fragrance Oil from WSP. It has a distinctive almond component but so far I like it alot.

i have tried many of this scent also, none i like too much, people still buy it though. I do have aroma havens in my soap cottage now, it smells really good in bottle, but that is sometimes misleading too. tell us if you like bittercreek.

I'm glad I'm not the only one. I thought it was disgusting after I soaped it CP. However, I picked up an old piece that was sitting on the bathroom shelf and had a sniff and thought it had improved greatly after nearly a year. Here's hoping yours improves with time too. :wink:

I soap Aroma Haven's OMH and I love it.

I don't know about Bubbles but the one I bought was this one: http://www.aussiesoapsupplies.com.au/Oatmeal-Milk-Honey-pr-602.html

I would be happy to send you (or anyone in Australia..) a free sniffy so you can smell what it's like - just PM me. :wink:

It may very well be that the scent improves as it cures and is ultimately better than OOB.

 

[Bubbles Galore]

I bought the BB one from Aussie Soap Supplies too. :wink:

 

[honor435]
