You said you just received them.... usually they smell different just after arriving because of all the movement, and you can do a more fair assessment if you let them sit 24 hrs or so. In my own personal experience, and perhaps because I have an acute sense of smell; if I dislike it out of the bottle, I will dislike it in the soap. The only exception has been spearmint EO. I also hated cedarwood (because I got the Texas version) But over time it has grown on me.
As far as fragrances, I usually sell them straight away if I don’t like them, and if I decide to try them in soap I still dislike them.
I did smell them when they arrived and then again a couple of days later to show my boyfriend. I think my sense of smell is pretty accurate too, it's the reason I'm so picky with food (lol). So, I think will try these in single soaps since it's my first experience with them. If you don't mind my asking, where do you sell them?
