We experienced excessive acceleration with the use of the stick blender, but there was no separation. We did two quick pulses of the stick blender and a portion of batter immediately mixed to a thick trace while the top half was still clear. We quickly hand stirred the batter and got it to a medium trace before quickly pouring into the mold. After 24 hours there was no discoloration, and the scent was strong. The soap did not reach a full gel to the edges, and there were some signs of overheating through the center as well as lye pockets from the incomplete mixing. After 30 days the soap did change to a dark yellow color and the scent remained amazingly strong. We would recommend hand stirring in the fragrance as late as possible in your process to avoid this. Due to the acceleration of this fragrance, we suggest a single color or simple layers.

Not as strong as others

Its not as strong as other oils that I have purchased, but it does smell like someone cut their grass right before the rain came. I actually mixed it with the English Garden scent, and it gave it a slight spring rain smell which everyone in my house enjoyed.

i like it

Good ct and ht. used 444. 10%. CD-12 scent was tested in a 8oz straight sided jar scent filled my space beautifully (medium strength) scent was tested at 5 curing days. added at FO at 187F scent smells different from bottle, on wax (ct) and when lit (ht). this is a very floral scent in my opinion, cold throw when on wax you can really smell lily of the valley but when lit (ht)this smells like rose petals with hints of ozone and little lily of the valley, honestly reminds me of rose water when lit. when I entered the room i thought it was my rose petals candle and double checked the tester sticker i put on to make sure it wasn't. I would add it to my collection but i have scent that smells very similar to it so probably not.

Beautiful but...

This has great throw and is a beautiful scent, but definitely read the description, it is VERY floral. If you expected something like turquoise waters this is not it...but it is a beautiful fresh floral scent. I probably would have named it something like Spring Bouquet.

Wow!!

Not what I had in mind

I really love rain water scents, but this smells like something else. It kind of smells like roses & that old ladyish smell… you might like it but I really don’t.

Nice scent, great for blending

This is a lovely clean and floral scent that does smell great on its own, but I recommend blending it with another fragrance; for example, I purchased a 1 oz bottle of Rain Water as well as a 1 oz bottle of Himalayan Bamboo to try out a blend I had in mind, and it smelt great! I definitely think using this scent as a blender definitely not only adds to this scent but can also strengthen certain notes in other scents.

Disappointing

I was really excited for this scent when I got it in the mail. The FO smelled amazing, and I made a tester candle. I put in a 10% fragrance load and the cold throw and hot throw were both amazing. I burned it a couple times, but that’s when it went horribly wrong. The entire candle started to smell a little weird, and now it only smells like metal. I’ve had the exact same issue with the Oak moss and Amber fragrance oil as well as the Ocean Breeze Fragrance oil. I’ve tried different wicks and fragrances but some of them just keep smelling like metal. Extremely disappointed

Nowhere near what I expected.

It seems to be very rose forward. Not what I expected.

I like it, but also meh about it

I want to echo what others before me have said
- Rain water is not an accurate name for this scent
- It is a very nice scent overall
My main reason for feeling meh is that it smells quite chemically. Like detergent as someone had mentioned before. Might try with some blends to see if the fragrance is more up my alley
