So what is everyone’s standard soap line inventory? And what I mean by that is what does everyone use for their soap scents.
I’d like to have between eight and 10 standard soaps in my rotation at all times. Lavender, lemon verbena, coconut verbena, oatmeal milk and honey, vanilla bean, Etc.
I like citrus and herbal types, nothing floral or dessert like.
Thanks!!!!
 
I have about 25 fragrances (across multiple products) that are standard year-round for me. Everything is a woodsy theme, with my categories being watery, citrus, leathery, piney, fresh clean, spa-like, dry floral, sweet floral, sweet fruit/floral, and patchouli-based. My one and only foodie is also woodsy.

The rest, upwards of 70+ scents, are highly seasonal or location-specific, as that is part of the marketing strategy that positions me in my niche.

More than 50% of my customers are male, but interestingly citrus and florals make up more than 50% of my sales.

I personally love herbals and spicy warm, but they are a hard sell.

We are at about 52 varieties, of which approx 33 are essential oil, 6 are blends, 10 are fragrance oil, and 8 are unscented. Would love to have certain other eo scents, but oils are just too expensive...lemon verbena, rose, etc. It is a lot of varieties to keep track of, but it also gives more flexablilty when wholesaling. Lavenders, citrus's, florals, woodsy, savvory and unscented

This is sort of like asking what to serve in your restaurant.
The same lineup won't work in every venue, populations and demographics vary so widely. And your competition won't do your research for you.
 
Wow! Lots of scents in everyone’s lineups!!! I am small potatoes Christmas craft shows, haven’t done one in a few years, but thinking I might get back into it - I live in Louisville, KY and bourbon is king here/ gotta have one of those I guess
