May be my favorite FO

As soon as the sample came in and I smelled it OOB, I quickly order 2 16oz bottles. This could be my favorite FO of any in my line.

Smells great blended with Iced Vanilla Woods

I made cold process soap using equal parts of Sherlocks Study & Iced Vanilla Woods. Based on the discoloration of the Iced Vanilla Woods to brown, I split the fragrance into 3 equal parts. One part, IVW, one part SS and the 3rd equal parts of each. I stirred in the fragrance oil after blending in the mica to each portion. The Sherlock Study portion & blended portion reached medium trace before the IVW portion, which I needed to give an extra stir. I had no problem getting the full batch into the mold and doing a simple swirl. The finished batch smells amazing and was well worth the extra prep and effort.

This is a very complex masculine scent. It does accelerate like the soap notes state. I used it in cold process goat milk soap. I definitely don't recommend using beer with this scent as it will speed up the acceleration. I didn't get soap on a stick by the end but it was pretty thick by the end of the pour. I still wouldn't hesitate to buy it again as it's got a great scent.
