Peaks Pumpkin Spice Acceleration

[saltydog]

Made a batch tonight, never even got my hand mixer in!

I added the fo to my cooled oils and it was controllable, but I only stirred it for a short time with a wooden spoon (and I did use 30% PO) but definately a very fast trace!

Cut it tonight, doesn't smell very much like anything. I used .7 ppo.
Hope some more fragrance may come thru as it cures..

Spices often accelerate trace

Did you check the soap scent review board?

The SRB post for this fragrance http://soapscentreview.obisoap.ca/search.php?fid[]=35 states that the soaper experienced no acceleration - so I gotta wonder if you soaped hot. (She also said nice scent, but not much pumpkin - so hang in there and see what happens).

She did post her review in 2006, though, and it's entirely possible it was reformulated since then!

Thank you, carebear- didn't even know this review board existed, good stuff!

Not much experience here, but still- I've never had a faster trace. I actually soaped pretty cool, (100) anticipating A.
The good news is, the soap looks fine, and I do think the fragrance is starting to come thru a bit, I can smell it more than I did yesterday. It smells faintly spicy.

I love that scent! I can't remember having any problems with it. I didn't adjust my lye concentration, just used Soapcalc's values.
