Hello, I made an activated charcoal and rose clay spa bar melt and pour soap. Per the instructions I used alcohol to remove bubbles and adhere layers. My soap came out beautifully but smells really bad. I believe the smell is the combo of the Scent and the alcohol. I read that the alcohol smell goes away in a few days. I already used shrink wrap to package my soap. My question is if the alcohol smell will disparate in the shrink wrap or do I need to remove all packaging and re package after a few days.
TIA

Which proof alcohol did you use? Alcohol should dissipate as the soap cools. How long did you wait before wrapping?
How much fragrance per pound of soap did you use? Did you go by weight?
