We did not experience any acceleration or separation. The batter was slow to come to trace and very easy to work with. After 24 hours, we could see the soap had reached a partial gel, just through the very center. We observed an unusual discoloration pattern; the outer edges of the soap had turned a dark mustard yellow while the inner area turned a gold color. The scent was quite strong and more of the woody notes came through. After 30 days, the soap had discolored to a light brown shade and the scent became much more balanced although it was not quite as strong. The discoloration would make this a great fragrance to experiment with a wood grain pattern by using various amounts of titanium dioxide.

One of my favorites

I make this in wax melts and cold process soap and people love it. It has a sexy and mysterious scent. I would dare say the scent is a bit witchy, which is on brand for my products.

Cozy

We have had this scent since we bought our first candle kit from CS, but never gave it much thought. We liked it, but didn't love it. Let us tell you we have fallen in love! Even better, so have our customers! It's the perfect blender, but is great alone. So warm and cozy!

Wonderful for blending

This smells a bit like a sweet, spicy men's cologne OOB. But after blending it with Mediterranean Fig, it transformed into something amazing. I'm still testing. CT and HT in paraffin is really good. So far, I'm pretty sure the blend I created with Egyptian Amber and Mediterranean Fig is going to be a feature in my fall line.

No Hot Throw

CT was good but, no HT in my coconut blend.

Wonderful

I absolutely love this scent and used it in CP soap and lotion. Both smell amazing and it’s been popular with men and women, everyone seems to enjoy it. The soap accelerated really quick but I was able to get it in the mold just fine, it did go through gel phase too but the verrrrry outer edges are yellow and the middle is a deep gold, I think it looks nice though and matches the scent perfectly. This will be a staple in my collection.

Smells strange, no throw, and nothing like the discontinued version

This fragrance was my best seller and many customers only purchase candles in this fragrance. It now has no cold or hot throw and I cannot find a replacement anywhere for the original. The fragrance I do smell, is very strange and nothing like the original. I have a 5 gallon container of this fragrance oil that is a complete waste of money.

SEXY IN A BOTTLE!!!

I have been using this FO for a few years now and I still love it as much today as I did the first day I smelled it! This is BY FAR one of my best sellers all year around. This is just dreamy and sexy and masculine yet somehow feminine. It’s absolutely intoxicating OOB but also blends beautifully with some other fragrances, so you can make it all your own. CS PLEASE DONT EVER STOP MAKING THIS ONE!

Great throw in GB 464

This scent is unique...can't quite put my finger on it! The amber doesn't come through very much but it is a feminine, sophisticated fragrance. The throw in 464 soy wax is amazing too. Overall a great f/o!

Good, but redundant

I like this fragrance but it's quite redundant with any other CS "amber" product, I'd go with another amber if I could only pick one
