I'm preparing to purchase scents for summer, and I want to make a coconut soap (maybe called "Triple Coconut" that contains coconut milk, 25% coconut oil, and coconut fragrance.) I usually purchase from Brambleberry and Nature's Garden. Anybody have a great suggestion? Thanks a bunch!

I have yet to find a good, sweet , fresh coconut that doesn't fade, morph or turn into a play dough smell. I've looked for years.

Backwoods has a Coconut Curry Custard that I fell in love with. Its a rich, creamy coconut that was still strong in 1 yr. old bars I had. Despite "curry" in the title, I don't pick up spice notes (but that's my nose!). It was very well behaved for me, but does discolor to dark brown.

That's another thing....I would love for any coconut FO not to discolor.
