Comments

Mike

Oops, I just noticed I do have some level of separation with Strawberry Pound Cake (type) at 1%. Nix my comment, and replace it with that it isn’t compatible due to separation.

Mike

Strawberry Pound Cake (type)
Usage 1%
No separation. Took 1 day to become clear. Any stirring/agitation causes cloudiness. Scent retention seemed normal.

Leslie

Cocoa Butter Cashmere
Usage 1%
No separation, Became clear after about an hour. Scent is medium strong, can probably lower to .5%

White Tea- some separation at 1% strong scent

Fresh Mint Eucalyptus – Some separation at 1% Very strong scent.
I plan to test at a lower percentage.

Christine

Cosmic Berry: Usage 1%. No separation. Became clear (used few drops water soluble dye) after a few hours. Strong scent retention.

Cucumber + Melon: Usage 1%. No separation. Became clear (used few drops water soluble dye) after a few hours. Strong scent retention.

Fresh Lemon + Wild Sage (50/50): Usage 1%. Became clear (used few drops water soluble dye) after a few hours. Strong scent retention.

Brandy

I would like to revise my comment on Midnight Moonflower – no seperation, I was wrong! Still very strong, I’m happier having diluted it down to about 0.3%.

Laurisa

Honey Spiced Pear
Usage 0.5%
No separation, solution became clear about 4 hours after initial mixing. Scent is medium/medium strong. Compatible Y
