"Our absolute favorite Christmas scent and best seller at Christmas time. It is heavenly!!! Strong too!"
"I tried this out in a cold process batch this year and cannot stop just breathing it in as much as my lungs will hold! It's a refreshingly Christmasy scent of snow-covered pine branches, berries tart yet subtly sweet and new-fallen snow. I love this scent. It did not accelerate or discolor my batch. Advantages: Refreshing and likely a winner all year 'round. Disadvantages: You won't know how to do without it once you've experienced it."
"This is a perfect, old country Christmas Scent. Reminds me of Christmas growing up. Very popular! Try it, your customers will love it!"
"Love the scent, but decided to throw the batch away. FO turned red when added to my oils. It accelerated so quickly that I guess it did not disperse well. As the soap cures it has red dots and is also discoloring to an odd shade of pinkish tan. I should have HP instead of CP this batch. Advantages: Scent is wonderful Disadvantages: Discolored and accelerated in CP"
"This is a nice blend as the Christmas fir tree is so perfect and balanced with other fruity notes, allowing this to be used all year round. I have not tested it in CP soap yet, but have used it in other applications. Advantages: Terrific in a room sprayPerfect in bath bombs"
"This scent is the epitome of Christmas. I smell the pine right off. However, for me, it reminds me of a popular hair grease from back in the 80s. I used in CP soap. It does tint the soap orange right away. This fades after a few minutes. It also riced my red colored soap. It does accelerate trace, almost to the point of seizing. I was too ambitious as I was attempting a spin swirl with 4 colors. Epic fail!! Advantages: Smells good. It would be great in a candle. Disadvantages: Accelerates trace, possible ricing."
