I received a sample of Carrot Seed FO a LONG time ago from BB and I have not used it because oob it smells aweful. Any suggestions on what to do with it? Any mixes you can think of? It was so long ago, BB doesn't even carry it anymore. I was thinking a gardeners soap but I just don't know that I could stand it. Has anyone tried it and had success? TIA.

Is it an FO or EO? I haven't smelled their FO. But I've used Carrot Seed EO, which is lightly sweet but woody/earthy and pretty strong when smelled OOB. But it definitely mellowed once I used it in something. I've blended that with Sweet Orange, lemon, litsea, Yuzu. I bet it might blend nice with BB's Energy FO.

It's definitely fo. I got it as a sample probably 5 years ago. I don't know if it is even good still but BB puts everything in glass so I would assume it's ok. I was looking at the Energy FO and thinking about purchasing some since it seems like I may be the only soapmaker on the planet that doesn't own it (lol). I tried some blends yesterday with it with what I have on hand and I just couldn't get past the smell of the carrot seed. I may just ditch it. It's only .5oz.
