It's so expensive that most people won't waste it on CP. Maybe on HP. Personally, I'd save it for a lotion or a body butter.
Hello! I agree with dixiedragon - use it for something that will stay on the skin a whole lot longer than soap. With soap it will make the drain pipes smell like roses. :-D Use a much lower grade of eo of rose or one of the many various fo's for soap.
 
Thanks for the tip, Obsidian. I tried NG's Fresh Cut Roses. It's pretty good too, and I would use it again, but it's just not quite what I have in mind for "my" rose scent. I can't quite explain it. My grandmother taught me to love the classic tea roses -- I grew up on Mr. Lincoln and Peace -- and today I grow fragrant rugosas. I'm looking for a rose scent with that kind of depth but without smelling like cologne.
 
There are a lot of nice rose FO's out there. I really like this one, it smells like a old fashioned rose perfume without being overly powdery or old lady like

This one is my favorite though, slightly fruity with a very true rose scent. I like this one for soap and the other one for lotion.

I saw the links, I will try one of these. I havent any one that makes Rose Eo products. Whether lotions or soaps.
