Coffee bean
"I made cold process soap twice now. It does discolor the soap batter but it goes nice with the coffee scent. Smells like coffee with a hint of chocolate"

The Espresso Fragrance Oil 843 is highly praised for its rich and wonderful coffee-like fragrance. While some customers find the coffee scent rich and sweet, others feel it is watered down. Overall, the product offers a delightful aroma experience.

"Excellent CT and HT. . !"
"Another fantastic fragrance. I use this in my spa products. Absolutely love. So clean and comforting. Perfect fragrance for the spa products."
"Great scent! exactly what I was hoping for! It smelled a little sweet OOB, but after cure, a little less so. Discolored as expected, but a really nice golden brown. I soaped this side by side with Crafter's Choice Fresh Brewed Coffee 151. Out of the bottle, the two smelled almost identical to me (admittedly, I don't have a refined smeller). But, once cured Espresso retains its scent far better and it cures to a nicer, richer golden brown. The Fresh Brewed is more of a creamy brown, scent not as strong."
"I made a 24 bar batch. The soap turned out pretty but the scent completely changed. Doesn't smell good. I put coffee grounds and some cocoa in it for coloring. I'm not sure if the Cocoa affected the scent."
"This is too carmely sweet for me to be a true espresso scent. But, I combined this FO with the Crafters Choice Coffee Beans EO/FO, about 50/50, made with 1/2 goat milk and 1/2 very strong brewed coffee, and used coffee butter in the recipe at 10%. Wowza!!! Intoxicating combination! Coffee Beans alone was a bit too harsh, and Espresso too sweet, but together they are a winning combination. Would also work well with a vanilla fragrance to create a Vanilla Latte scent."
"I could not stop sniffing the bottle when I first got it! This would be great in candles! It made my whole kitchen smell delicious. I used this in cold process soap. The smell did lighten and change a bit in the soap, but it still smelled great! I used coffee in my lye solution though, and used coffee grains for exfoliant as well. My husband tells it smells creamy and reminds him of a cookie. I smell notes of faint coffee, light sweetness, and a nutty fragrance."
"This is a fabulous coffee type scent for blending with other fragrances. No issues soaping."
"I love coconut. Obsession level - LOVE COCONUT. This fragrance is ok. Personally I wasn't a big fan, it's a little sweet on the nose for me. I made cold process soap and it performed well, gave the soaps to family and everyone I gifted it to loved it and asked for more."
"I wanted the coffee bean fragrance oil but they have been out of stock for weeks. Got this instead and it literally has NO scent!! OOB it smelled like very watered down coffee and in cold process soap it became nonexistent. Just wasted my ingredients."
