I bought this one too--- loved it in the bottle. Hated it in the soap.

I have gotten quite a few from them and tried 3 so far and like them in the bottle and hate them in the soap. All 3 of those batches didn't work out. Now with saying that it might be very well that one recipe I used lard instead of shortening-- smelled like fish bait when thru-- could have been the lard, 2 batch seized completely and looks like lye settled on bottom and has dos and barley has scent- I think its unusable-- could also be that I didn't get the lye completely dissoloved, 3rd made a victorian rose--- smelled like rotting flowers for 5 weeks before it started to smell like a rose--- I was going to give it 6 weeks (if I could stand it that long) then if not better by 6 weeks --I mean surely right?!--I'd toss it. Then I kind of smells better not so rotteny flowers smell -- you can actually smell a little rose in there. I'm not saying that there stuff is bad Lots of people use it and love it and have great success but for me and my dumb luck... I'll probably use the rest I have in salts or lotions or smelly jellies-- scared to chance it again.

Good luck and hope all is well
