We did not experience any acceleration but did see signs of separation and ricing. The batter came to an emulsion, then as a light trace began to form we observed some ricing. We continued stick blending until a medium to thick trace formed and the batter held together nicely without separating. The soap was still fluid enough to easily pour into the mold. After 24 hours there were no signs of discoloration, but we did observe a partial gel in the very center of the bars. The scent was quite strong. After 30 days there was no discoloration and the scent was still strong. Due to the potential separation, we recommend mixing in colors first then adding fragrance as late as possible. A design where a thick trace is needed, such as a spoon swirl, would be a good option when using this fragrance.

*Note - This fragrance was tested at a 5% fragrance load. With the release of IFRAs 49th Amendment this fragrance can now be used at 4.6% to remain IFRA compliant.

Wonderfully true scent.. sorry to see it go

While I’ve had this fo for sometime I always found it to be a wonderfully accurate scent but shelved it due to customer demand. Fast forward to today and discovered it gone when I went to use if for my high-end beach clients. Very sad since this is a great blender with “sea” type scents

Heart broken

This was my absolute favorite fragrance and I come to reorder and find it completely gone. I guess shame on me for assuming it would be one to last. I suppose I'll have search elsewhere. Because it was half the reason for me to be here.

My customers love this scent

I truly love this scent and my customers love it as well. I feel like it smells like my garden. Clean cucumber scent. I am truly sorry to see it's been discontinued. I'm praying there is another version to replace it.

fresh and vibrant

I'm posting here with the hopes that the folks at CS will read it and know it is loved! I bought this on a whim and regret not buying more. The fragrance is fresh and crisp, not overly sweet with a fake cuke smell. Like freshly crushed herbs and a dewy garden. Fingers crossed there will be a replacement of this one!

True to life scent!

I am sad to see this scent go ~ I have been mixing & using this in quite a few of my top selling candles.....
By itself it might be a bit whoa..... But mixed with the right oils, perfect to create wonderful & unique new scents!
