I find most Midwest Fragrances to run on the sugary side scent-wise. But a very nice fragrance. Leans towards a vanilla caramel scent. Please adjust the fragrance notes tho, it does accelerate. I made a peacock swirl and it thickened up with minimal stick blending.
This is a great scent and I use it for blending a rustic cowboy scent.
I mixed this scent with Pipe Tobacco and only the PT scent came through. I will try it alone, but I was disappointed since the out-of-the bottle fragrance was quite nice.
It’s lovely and not too strong, which isn’t a deal breaker. That could change after I put it in wax.
This scent is so delicious I could drink it. So smooth and buttery. It's a true favorite. It is good alone or as a blender.
I have a feeling this scent is going to be popular. It is well-balanced and smells so good. Best of all, it soaped perfectly. No issues and the batter stayed fluid.
Smells nice and masculinely sweet
This is a superb masculine scent that blends really well with so many fragrances. Does really well in 100% soy wax.
Seemed to be a little sweet but once I put it into my soap recipe, it leveled out beautifully definitely will purchase again
This is a great manly scent. I use it for car freshies and the men love this one.
Love this smell, but if you're buying it for body sprays it does not blend well with MWFC body spray base. Very cloudy when it's mixed. Oil settles to the top after it sits for a while. :(
Great products and fast shipping !!
What took me so long to use this FO!?!! It's Amazing! Please keep it forever, because it's a keeper for me and a customers fav! I have used it now in gel and soyblend candles. Love it! 😍
This didn’t give what I thought it would.
Maybe once I use it it’ll give me something different.
I mix this one with a gunpowder scent I get from another company and the two mixed together are the most amazing man smell lol. My guy customers and my ladies are buying this line crazy.
Love this FO! Will be ordering more. Smells great in wax melts.
I love everything about this oil! Please don't ever change or discontinue it. I can't wait to create blends with this oil!
This is a great scent on its own and as a mixer! Glad I got 2 cause will be ordering more!
Nice scent! Made soy candles and wax melts!
Nice scent
Admittedly, I am not a fan of this oil in the bottle. However, in a candle, it has a beautiful, subtle scent. Smells like Irish coffee if you mix it with Roasted Pine Cone FO. Try it, you might love it,
I think of leather bound books, dark wood library, a cardigan sweater in an oversized leather chair. If a fragrance could be called, mature, this one is.
I had a special request so bought this. I never would have otherwise. Wowzers!!! This was so surprising to me how wonderful this actually smelled! Do yourself a favor and buy some of this. You will be just as pleasantly surprised as i am!
Smells nice OOTB but in Joywax it had a weak CT and HT for me in 10% FO
I absolutely love love love this scent! It’s one of those scents that walks a fine line of being unisex because of some of its masculine notes, but it smells so good! It’s a very creamy sexy scent, I make it in a perfume and body butter.
I make goat's milk CP soap and this fragrance is amazing! It soaps perfectly and does not accelerate or rice. I can stick blend the clay and scent in the batter with no issues. This is a customer favorite.
Nice
Love this scent!
I love this scent it's definitely one of my favorite and top sellers.
Wish I loved this one but just didn’t enjoy it out of the bottle. It’s possible once I make product with it it may transform my opinion but I haven’t gotten there yet.
I'm in love with this scent. Nice and smooth, not sharp like so many alcohol scents. I mix it with coconut to create my own "coconut bourbon" and it is a best seller for me!
I only bought a small sample for tester 4oz tin candel and to make a couple of wax melts. Sold out !!!! I brought them with me just let my people what's to come and sold out I had to hide the tin or I would never know what it really smelled like.
