Teach Soap

I have BBs lemongrass f o . I really don't like it out of the bottle. I have grown lemongrass and liked the smell but this has not much lemon and is more weedy than grassy smelling. Does it smell better in the soap ? How about a suggestion of another f o or e o that I could mix with it? Than you for any suggestions you have.

Add it to some citrus oils, or if you have BB's Energy FO, try the two on q-tips and see how you like it.

I have blended lemongrass with a FO called Niagara falls. It is sort of a water scent that I got years ago. That blend was very clean smelling and well received by family and friends.

This Christmas I blended lemongrass with peppermint EO. It is nice but not as nice as the one above. I thought that the peppermint would overwhelm the lemongrass, but not so. They are about equal in this bar of soap. I have read somewhere that adding some geranium to this blend is good - have not tried that.

Another that is on my list to try is sweet fennel, lemongrass and rosemary.

I like lavender and lemongrass and have a few blends that are quite complex as well. Lemongrass mixes well with; Basil, bergamot, black pepper, cedarwood, clary sage, coriander, cypress, fennel, geranium, ginger, grapefruit, lavender, lemon, marjoram, orange, palmarosa, patchouli, rosemary, tea tree, thyme, vetiver, and ylang ylang, so see what you have and use qtips to get an idea of the scent blends that you may like. Have fun with it! Just remember your max percentages so that you don't over use any eo!
