Teach Soap

Anyone try mixing this FO with something else? It seems kind of light to me. What other blends can I do with this single note?

You can mix it with just about anything. Citrus, florals, woody fragrances....

Mix it with whatever you like! I like chamomile/lavender EO

I've used it but it's one of those to use sparingly.
It may smell light but a little goes a very long way. I'd say .5 (or less) oz ppo. We're actually working on using the last bar of that particular batch & it's still very strong.
It behaved generally well. Not 100% a team player but I've played with much worse. : )
Hope that helps.

I've got BBs chamomile and it's VERY strong. So I go real light with it. I just mixed it almost 50-50 with grapefruit. Thought it would be nice for summer.

Wow, didn't think this FO is going to be strong in CP , will take it easy.
So far there are a few ideas from you ladies:
Chamomile with Lavender
Chamomile with Neroli
Chamomile with Grapefruit

I will be busy...

Tried mixing Chamomile with Sandalwood Vanilla couple days ago. Chamomile Fo is not what I expected, it's actually more herbal and sharp OOB. I thought Sandalwood Vanilla is strong, once I add just a tab of Chamomile the vanilla sort of disappeared... After CP, Chamomile did mellowed out a bit, still strong, kind of made Sandalwood Vanilla more fresh and herbal, less sweet. After adding vanilla stabilizer it still came out yellowish. Will post photo if I get a chance tonight. Oh, no A at all with full water amount, plenty of time to play with swirling, actually can discount water a little so it's not so soft.

I like the orange and yellow combo that you achieved! Are you still going to try some of the other combos?

Looks wonderful!
I told you, that chamomile can be wicked! It does mellow but not by much.
I love your scent blend. It never struck me to mix it (the chamomile) with anything. Vanilla sounds like a very nice choice. Now you have my gears in my head turning. although, I'll probably skip the sandalwood. Not my favorite smell (don't even get me started on the 4oz of Patchouli I've yet to use).
I can only imagine the Mr will be rolling his eyes like a slot machine when he comes home tomorrow. He was so pleased when he thought I was running out of experimental ideas.

MsB, you think I was crazy mixing Chamomile with Sandalwood Vanilla, try this one! I just did a CRAZY mix of FO:
2 parts Chamomile
2 parts French Lavender
1.5 Part Neroli
1 part Dragon's Blood
1 Part Sage & Lemongrass

Holly molly cow~ I actually like the scent, now I have to test it in CP, will report later.
