"This fragrance makes my best selling beer soap, loved by men and women alike. I make hot process soap, it makes a wonderful bar that darkens (a lot) as it cools but it is a little slow to harden which could work in your favor if you wanted to do in-the-pot swirl with a lighter color, unscented soap."
"This is just like opening a bottle of the said drink. It has sharp, crisp notes of blackberry with that tell-tale fragrance of alcohol without coming off too strong. Very sweet, very heady. Love it and love blending it in other things."
"My customers like it better than I do, so still on the fence. Smelled better out of bottle than in soap, just too sweet. Maybe better suited for bath bombs, etc."
"This smells so good, I make soy tarts with this and it makes my whole house smell like yummy wine. I also use this in my home made carpet pre vacuum powder"
"I made shower gels tonight and it came out great with this scent! Heavenly in the shower! Can't wait to make more!"
"i love this scent and i would have given it 5 stars if it had not seized in my cold process soap. even with hand stirring with a whisk it set up almost immediately in my soap bucket. i was able to beat it back into submission with some brisk stirring and plopped it in the mold. i soap room temp oils/lye liquid and just a very slight water discount. i did color it with some burgandy mica, so can't say if it discolors or anything. it did have a peachy/orange tint to it on the rim of the bucket. going to give it a go again and see what happens. if not it will make a great lotion scent."
"This smells great like a rich vineyard grape smell. I'm still figuring out how to color around the odd dark yellow oil color. . . I tried to add purple. . . bad idea. Next time I may just leave it natural."
"My customers just love this fragrance!!"
"Smells more like black grapes than wine, but I love this scent! Had me worried at first - white batter was a whack yellow color, and the purples were brown. But the vanilla stabilizer did the trick along with titanium dioxide. As it cured, the colors straightened out! Whew!"
"I purchased this during the holidays and made candles. Smell great in candles. I will try the tarts. Not too sure I would like in CP. It is very rich in wine and berries. Deep strong smell. My entire home smelled for about a good 3days. Saved me from lighting candles. I will get a larger bottle."
