Teach Soap

Hi, I'm new, but I had to jump right in because of a deadline, but will introduce myself later! I am not that new to soapmaking, but am still learning, and mostly do melt and pour,bath fizzies, and lip balm. My question is, Have you tried any of these fragrances from BB?:
Chai Tea(Cybilla)
Creamsicle(Cybilla)
Blackberry Spice
Wasabi
Chamomile Bergamot
White Tea and Ginger
Ginger Fish
I'm trying to pick some new fragrances to add to my stash, but because my budget is extremely limited, I want to see what other soapers thought of them. Also, has anyone tried the Lime essential oil from Brambleberry?
What did you think of it? Sorry for the many questions!

I agree with Bramble Mama, you can't go wrong with the Best Seller Sampler. It's comprised of the fragrances that sold the best, overall, for the entire year at BB.

Out of your list, if I had to pick just one, I'd go with Wasabi. It seems to be trendy and popular right now. Who knows if it will stand the test of time like Energy or OMH though? Both of those have been #1 and #2 best sellers for years now so clearly, they're not capitalizing on just the trends of the season. =)

mm - i FINALLY soaped the oatmeal, milk and honey scent. wow that's a wonderful, light scent! not sure why i waited soooo long

anyhoo, i agree w/ PJ.. sea moss is a really wonderful scent. EVERYONE i've sampled it to loved it. it's definately a genderless scent.

creamsicle is a fun scent. it works well for summer for sure.

i have wasabi, but have not soaped it yet. im actually still on the fence with it.

the others you list, i've not tried, but would like to try in the future.

i also agree with Bramble Momma and SoapQueen. go with the sampler. it may help some.

thanks and good luck

Meep-thanks! I think I'm going to go with the Wasabi, Creamsicle, and then...I want something to go in a body butter, maybe something fruity? Also, (off topic) me and my friends went to Bath and Body Works today and I(who never came there!)noticed that their Cucumber Melon, Coconut Lime Verbena, and Cherry Blossom scents were ok, not the best, but of course, I was recovering from a cold and might not be accurate. I'm pretty sure it would smell better if I wasn't sick. Anyway, it was a learning experience, and I realized that if you were well known as a B&B company, you could charge $1.50 for 1 oz. of hand sanitizer and have people(us!) buy it. And no, I just wanted to try one of their products, and the four of us got a discount from buying five.
