We did not experience acceleration or separation. Once the batter came to trace it turned very goopy but still easy to work with. After 24 hours there was no discoloration, and the scent was strong. After curing the soap was a light tan shade and the scent was strong. Due to the texture of the batter, a layered soap pattern would be ideal.

wonderful

10% in IGI 6046 - Coconut/paraffin wax - great hot throw. the aroma is neither masculine nor feminine, not sweet. Gives me SPA vibe.
Tried at 25% with diffuser base - not a lot of throw, ok if you have it at your desk or nightstand, next to you. Himalayan Bamboo had greater throw with CS diffuser base.

So Amazing!

I got this during the sample sale days, and I am not disappointed. Vetiver is fantastic and blends well with Black Violet and Saffron.

Vetiver-y Ah-mazing Scent!

I've been looking for a different source, for Vetiver, other than the current company I use. Their fragrances are magnificent, but cannot continue justify the cost. A really good Vetiver is very difficult to find. I took advantage of the 50% off deal on the 2oz bottle and YAHTZEEEEE!! You guys nailed it! It's much more common in Europe than it is here in the US, so I understand why it wouldn't be everyone's favorite. Give it a chance, make sure you blend it with other fragrances, i.e. grapefruit, lemon or even lemongrass. It's complex and so refreshing. Stay lit!

obsessed with this

this FO is seriously beautiful. its complex and could be added to so many candles to provide some depth. its earthy, bright, and fresh. I'm not sure what true vetiver is truly like but this is beautiful either way. great ct and ht.

Perfect for Blending

I personally do not love this scent on its own, but I bought it with the intention of mixing to create my own concoction. I find this works so well with oceanic scents to bring an earthy balance to it (I will use maybe 25% vetiver and 75% something else). This is my second year selling a candle with this FO and everyone loves. Vetiver is something you 'can't quite put your finger on' which helps make your candle collection unique. Will continue to purchase because I enjoy being creative and mixing things together like the little chemist I am.
