We experienced some acceleration but no separation. Using the stick blender brought the batter to medium trace quickly and it began to thicken as we poured into the mold. Hand stirring kept the batter more fluid. Due to the acceleration, we would recommend hand stirring in the fragrance at a very light trace to allow more time to work. After 24 hours there was a slight tan discoloration and the soap had almost reached a full gel with no insulation. The scent was very strong. After 30 days the soap had a pale yellow discoloration and the scent was strong.

Refreshing

This fragrance is lovely. Lots of layers and depth. Sour but in a comforting way

Not for me.

I like the tartness, but it smells like Red Currant with a rose undertone. The rose is a bit much. Not my cup of tea but not a bad scent.

I was looking to replace a Pomegranate fo I currently use, so I took a chance on Pomegranate Bitters. I love it! Just the right amount of tartness to balance out the sweetness in one of my fruity blends. Very excited! Stay lit!

I love this scent. I was curious about the notes, but they're so well blended that the fo smells just like a pomegranate, rind and all! With pomegranate cider, I definitely get more apple and spice. With this, the fruit is unmistakable.

Best Scent Ever!

I have been methodically testing a wide variety (30+) of candle fragrance oils, and this is the best one I've ever smelled. It's complicated but soft, sophisticated but familiar. This scent is incredibly soothing; even just working with it to make my candles made me feel increasingly more relaxed. I'm someone who is incredibly sensitive to smell, so I was weary of a stronger fragrance profile, but this does not give me a headache no matter how long the scent lingers in my home. I'm only slightly exaggerating when I say I'd bathe in this how good it smells. 10/10 fragrance! Don't hesitate. Buy this!
