Yummy but Berry
I really enjoy this scent but it was much more berry-forward than I thought it would be. It's really warm and I mixed with Sandalwood which created a BEAUTIFUL scent. It cut back the berry smell and made it feel more luxurious.

Cold Process Soap Performance
| Acceleration | Discoloration | Separation |
|---|---|---|
| Moderate | Brown | None |
Lye Water Temperature 90ºF
Oil temperature 90ºF
We experienced a moderate, nearing excessive amount of acceleration but no separation. We stick blended for no more than 5 seconds and the batter was at a thick trace. We were able to continue hand stirring to ensure all the oils and water were fully combined and the batter did not stiffen. The batter turned bright yellow once it came to a trace. After 24 hours, we observed the soap had only reached a partial gel and the outer edges discolored to tan while the inner area remained yellow. The scent was very strong. After 30 days, the soap had discolored to a chocolate brown color and the scent remained strong. We recommend allowing the oils and lye water to cool to room temperature before mixing, hand stirring this fragrance in at a very light trace, and choosing a simple design that embraces the dark discoloration.

MY FAVORITE CANDLE SCIENCE SCENT
This is my absolute favorite scent of yours!!!! It’s absolutely SEXY!!!! Please never discontinue this!!!!! I love it!
Owner of Harmony & Hue Corp.
My Black Currant & Jasmine candles are a huge hit. My customers love this scent & the candles sell out every time! Thank you Candle Science!!!
Beautifully Made Scent
I used 8% fragrance load in 464 soy with a wooden wick and it smells amazing. The black currant definitely shines through in this one, the jasmine is subtle, but present. If you are into sweeter smelling fragrances this should definitely be on your list.
Did something change recently??
Was obsessed with this oil ~2 months ago... but the last bottle I ordered smells funky, like sweet popcorn? Can’t put my finger on it... is anyone else having this issue? I emailed CS and they sent me another but it has the same problem. I’m bummed!!!!
Black currant & Jasmine
This scent is amazing! I have added a little cedar wood and have been amazed at the fragrance!
Unique Fragrance
This has been one of my favorite scents for years! I know so many people who keep coming back just for this scent. I was super nervous when it was reformulated, but thankfully it is almost identical to the original. Love this one!
this scent is lovely, it has an amazing hot & cold throw
I recommend this one to everyone . It scent is very delightful. I gave some melts to a guy friend and he loved it so much and gave it a lot of complements.
A favorite for sure. Performed well in CP soap and the scent holds well. Not very strong but good. The soy candles that I made using 10% smell wonderful! Will order again.
So gorgeous
Bought this for soap testing. It's a fast mover, but wasn't obnoxiously fast. I used a gram in 100 grams of hair conditioner, which is WAY TOO STRONG (my fault, not the fragrance's), so I'm currently sitting in a cloud of it. The drydown is beyond gorgeous.
Great
Black currant tea was one of my faves and I was heart broken when I got the notice about it being replaced. I was so afraid it wouldn't smell the same and it does. I'm happy
Candlemaker
I had a sample of black currant tea and liked it so much I decided to go back and buy a larger size. To my surprise it was discontinued! This scent smells identical. I am very thankful!
I eat my words
I was so upset when Black Currant Tea was discontinued. I was certain that the replacement wouldn’t smell the same as I’ve experienced this with a couple other scents here. Well, to my surprise, this is almost identical to Black Currant Tea. It’s not as strong but it’s close enough for me. Candlescience, you came through!
Pleasantly Surprised
So, I was bummed when I received the notification about Black Currant Tea being in the lineup of discontinuations, especially when I ran to purchase some bottles before this new version would launch and there were none left. Well, I ordered a couple sample bottles of Black Currant and Jasmine and I am very pleased with how identical it smells to the old version OOB to my senses. In fact, the jasmine note does a little something extra to it that makes me like it even better. I am almost certain cold and hot throws won't be too off and look forward to testing. Thank you CandleScience - I simply adore you!
