We did not experience any acceleration or separation. The batter was slow to come to trace and remained very workable. After 24 hours, the bars discolored to a light tan shade and the scent was very strong and spicy. We observed that the soap reached a partial gel with no insulation. After 30 days the soap discolored to a dark tan shade. The scent was still strong but had faded a bit and was not as spicy. The final bars smell much more like a true dragon's blood resin. This fragrance would be ideal to use the discoloration to your advantage and do a nice black soap or save some of the batter before adding fragrance and create a black soap with multi-colored swirls.
This is Dragon's Blood incense resin exactly. That resinous, orange-scented incense you can often find at head shops and novelty stores. Perfect! I don't do cold process soap or candles, so I can only report this as excellent as perfume oil or in melt and pour soaps, lotions.
Not a fan and candles were hard to sell. I would not recommend or purchase again
Very nice for masculine scent! My husband favorite.
I am not fond of it on it's own. After adding Bergamot essential oil, I like it so much more!
I love this scent, I have tried other companies FO and this Dragons Blood is by far the best smelling and is perfect for my melt and pour soap. It has a spicy smell and I Love It!
I am not an incense type of gal but this.. may have just changed my mind.
I bought this upon a few requests and sold out of the whole batch in one day!
Its not overpowering and actually while its a strong scent is soft in the sense that it does not overpower you like burning an incense stick does.
Very impressed with this one.
I adore this fragrance! I am so happy it's also free of Prop 65 warnings. (Can't wait til you reformulate your Nag Champa!!!!!) It smells so good....it's exactly like walking into a new age book store full of incense. Mmmmm.
Just like the original version of Gardenia (which I loved), this newer version of Dragon's Blood misses the mark. Sorry, but it does not smell anything like the original version of Dragon's Blood we all knew and loved. I miss Gardenia, and now DB too.
Smells like incense.
I'm so in love with this fragrance and my family loves it too! I made a few wax melts to test it out and instantly knew these would become a staple for my candle line. It behaved well in my coconut wax and I may even try it in my body care items. It's strong but I didn't find it overpowering. I'm a big incense fan so that may have contributed to why I fell in love so quickly.
I don’t like the smell at all, but if you like the smell of incense you’ll probably like this scent
This is my personal favorite scent! My customers love it. It is usually a hit or miss with people. I will buying more!
I've always loved soap made with dragon's blood and now I love this for candles. Made in a 4-oz jelly jar, apricot-coconut wax with a wood wick. Fantastic throw. WIll definitely be buying more of this.
I bought this scent randomly to try as a first time go at soy candle making. It threw really well with golden 444. Scent was overpowering when making, but dissipated once solid. As for burning - its fantastic. It has a sweet, powdery smell, with a deep musky undertone that is killer. 10/10 would recommend. I’ll definitely keep this in my rotation.
OMG love this scent. Completely new to the candle making experience Being newly visually impaired I’ve found I’m in love with trying and learning the scent laser and all the subtle notes. Dragons blood is a top notch scent. So many scents can’t wait to try them ALL
I cannot get over how sexy and spicy Dragon’s Blood is! I'm in love! Thank you for such an incredible oil!
