We did not experience any acceleration or separation. This fragrance was slow to come to a very light trace and held there for a while. After 24 hours, the soap was still too soft to remove from the mold so we allowed an additional 3 days before removing. The soap had only gelled in a small, quarter-sized circle in the center of our loaf. There was a very light yellow discoloration and the scent was quite strong. After 30 days, the soap was still a very light yellow color but the scent had faded slightly. The discoloration can easily be fixed with titanium dioxide. Citrus scents typically do fade in cold process soaps but you may find adding kaolin clay to your soap will help the scent last longer. This would be an ideal fragrance for vibrant colors and intricate swirl designs that require a very light trace.

still indecisive

Can I use this scent for reed diffusers? I bought this scent because it is very similar to the volcano, and I love it, but it is not clear whether it is appropriate to use it on those applications.

LOVE THIS SCENT!!!!

Rachelle Chavez 2025-06-13

Hello,

I absolutely love this scent for summer. But I have a question. My candles have a yellow'ish tint to the tops. Is this normal for this fragrance oil? If not, is there something I'm going wrong? I'm using 464 as my wax. I heat my wax to over 200' degrees. I add the fragrance oil in at around 190-200' degrees and stir for 2 minutes. I let the temp come down to about 170-180' before pouring. I do these with all of my candles. Citrus Agave and Limoncello Creme are the only ones that I have notices the yellow'ish tops. Any advise would be much appreciated.

Brilliant scent

Alicen 2024-12-10

I have used this to make candles, using 464, and in my wax melts with BW 921, and it is AMAZING! I decided to use it in my soap making as well and it is a true hit! I did a hot process soap and it is excellent. This scent can be used in many different home made items so it's versatility makes it really great for crafters. Customers love the scent too!
It has a beautiful citrus scent that makes you feel like you are wrapped in a warm spring day.
