Okay, I got my order today from NGC-my first time using them. I love the Plumeria and Mulberry, but hate their raspberry fo!
Mine has a gasoline smell to it! I whiffed coffee in between scents to clear my nasal passages and it still has a hint of gasoline... ugh!
Has anyone tried it? Does it smell better after added to soap? I am disappointed : I Did some scent tests with my other fo's using it and the only one I could get a good smell with was BB's Strawberry, smells like bubbalicious's strawberry gum!
Also, I still cannot stand my BB Cranberry Fig, it's too tart! ICK, and yes I am starting to get a bit of pine scent from it. It didn't have that before when I first purchased it and I have only had it for a month. (I keep all my fo's in a dark cool place) Does this lighten up in soap as well? :( I too was playing with this and added a a couple drops of Love Spell to it on a paper towel and it smells just like a juicy grapefruit. I may end up using this scent combo too.

You really need to soap it or use it in a product before you now what it smells like. Out of the bottle is often not a good judge of a fragrance. You should join the scent review board and look there, as you will likely find many others who have used the scent and have written their description/opinion about it.

Ditto that - :D

One of the first FOs I ever used was so awful out of the bottle, I traded the rest of it to get it out of the house as fast as possible. Fast forward 8 weeks - it cured into something I want to buy again! Now I regret judging it too quickly.
