What scents would you like to see?

**AJS** · 07-28-2006, 03:53 AM

These days I should imagine that nearly every scent imaginable is represented in the collections of the various soapmakers; however there are a number of scents, and combinations thereof, that I have yet to come across and seeing as we have a number of soapmakers as part of the community I thought it would be interesting to see what scents everyone would like to see become available.
To begin with I would like to see:
Bitter Cherry and Vanilla (please someone make this)
West Indian Bay (I know there are a lot of Bay Rum scents available, but I have seen very little using just the essential oil of the Bay plant)
Ylang Ylang (once again available in various combinations, I think, but the individual oil smells good enough to warrant at least one soap or cream.)

Strawberries and Cream, just for the summer.

1> Patchouli Spearmint
2> Something similar to Aqua Velva Classic Ice Blue bit with staying power
3> Sandalwood Coconut

Sandalwood & ginger. Maybe with a little jasmine. I may just have to go buy some oils and experiment!

Now that sounds interesting - not sure why some people want to smell like ice cream or candy, but to each his own.

What about some citrus/mint combination - bergamot might work.

Maybe they have a sweet tooth but can't eat the sweets themselves... Smelling is almost as nice. Aside from it makes me want it more.

Sandalwood and tobacco.

**GuitarDan** · 07-28-2006, 08:31 AM

It may be odd, but I'd love the smell of cavendish tobacco. Not smoke, just the fresh tobacco.

I wouldn't say odd. I don't really care for smoke either, though for scent I'd give pipe smoke the lead over cigarette or worse cigar smoke any day. I do however love walking through the isles of some pharmacies that sell pipe tobacco. Lovely smells from that isle!

I think that the Cavendish tobacco would go very nicely with some sort of leather scent.
P.S apologies for the embarassing repetition of the word see in my first post, after years of being forced to adhere to immaculate grammar and perfect spelling my brain has decided to rebel. I wont not speak or spell no good no more.

**Shane** · 07-28-2006, 09:02 AM

I would like to see some more herbal/spicy scents, one noters like straight Basil, Rosemary, Clove, etc.
