I received some fragrance oils & essential oils from Nature's Garden. Well, hubby and I were playing around with the tops smelling different combinations. We really liked the "fresh outdoors" when smelled with the nature identical "balsam fir". As I was smelling it, it hit me what it reminded me of. So, then we held those 2 along with the blood orange cap. It smells just like "Soarin'" at Disney World!

We loved the combo, now I need to try it in soap (or a candle)!
 
sounds lovely - unfortunately orange doesn't hold up well in CP, and i have had no luck with citrus in candles (smells like burning fuel). maybe some other citrus-type EOs?

This. I made a soy candle with the blood orange and it smells like fuel. Bummer. I should have just used it for lotion or something.
 
I'm hoping since it's a Blood Orange FO it will hold up. But, I do use the Sweet Orange EO in the orange patchouli soap (all EOs) and it holds up reasonably well.
