We did not experience any acceleration or separation. The oils and water were slow to come to an emulsion and it took a little longer than usual for us to reach a light trace. After 24 hours, we observed the soap had only reached a partial gel and the bars were discolored to a light tan. The scent was strong. After 30 days, the soap remained a light tan shade. The scent had faded slightly but remained pleasantly strong. The discoloration could easily be decreased by using titanium dioxide to whiten the soap. This fragrance would be ideal for a design that requires a light trace for an extended period of time.

I wasn't impressed at first but...
Kalidava 2025-09-26

I didn't particularly like this scent at first, but it really grows on you as it diffuses, opening up some interesting spicy and deep notes I really liked. I used it as the base for a pirate themed blend in our fantasy collection and it worked great. I learned what some of the component scents were and ordered them separately to further explore the notes as well. It isn't our most popular offering, but those who like it are very enthusiastic.

Manly Cologne Scent

Love this scent by itself! If applying to the fragrance wheel to mix with other scents, however, which category would this most likely fall into?

We're so glad to hear you love this fragrance! We consider this to be both in the Marine/Ozonic and Aromatic categories. Have a blast blending!

Sexiest Man Alive???
Julia Rose Co. 2025-04-24

If the sexiest man alive, whoever it is, had a smell, I truly believe he would smell like this, lol.. I ordered this to add to my Valentines Soap Collection. My soap line was named based off of top romantic movies and this one became: The Lake House. This is a clean, smooth, beautiful fragrance. This, along with sugar plum punch, is one of my best sellers. I believe it could be unisex but definitely more masculine leaning. Wonderful, wonderful fragrance!
