Has anyone had any issues with this fragrance in regards to color or trace? I got a sample from BB and loved it so I bought some.

It discolors to a dark brown for me. I don't have any problems with acceleration, but I soap at room temp, high OO recipes & almost full water.

I am not good at fragrance, notes and all that stuff. Any suggestions for something that does not turn dark that would compliment it so I could use it in a layer or maybe I should just leave one half unscented. I LOVE Black Amber and Lavender and would like to use it.

I like this one too. I haven't soaped with it yet but I have used it in body butter. It smells really yummy.

I have not used this, but I do make a similar natural blend. You can easily mix this with many things. You could do a single note lavender layer, or a citrus layer, or any number of scents. If you want to list what so you already have on hand we could offer suggestions.
