CLIBBINS FO/EO Blend

Honestly it isnt a fresh cut grass smell to me, but man is it strong and clean, green and just like fresh air in a field of green....grass, mixed with wild flowers lightly on the breeze and prairie weeds, with a light touch of leaves and sunshine. Your killin' me, Nurture Handmade, with all these awesome fo/eo's!!!!

My first batch misbehaved on me, solid bottom/liquid top. I think it was me (false trace?) because the second batch behaved just fine.

Yes, I bought this because of the unhinged product description.

I just made a test batch with it. The bulk batter from my test was split between Clibbins and Plum Crazy - Plum Crazy behaved beautifully, but Clibbins immediately riced the batter. I was able to stick blend it out pretty evenly (I think - haven't cut it yet...), but ended up at a very thick trace as a result. Even though it riced, it smelled so good that I'll buy it again and try with a different recipe. Oils from the riced batch were 50% lard, 25% coconut, 25% olive. If I can't find a recipe it doesn't rice in, I'll seriously keep buying it and blending it to all hell in no-design soaps - that's how good it smells. It is very true to Lush Grass shower gel - clean and earthy with a very mild vegetal sweet note (like... fresh cut grass...).

It does give a little vanillin discoloration. I colored my test with 1 tsp ppo Cabin Fever mica (which is already a muted green), and it turned out quite gray. Next time I'll do 2 tsp ppo of color and use a mix of titanium dioxide and a brighter green like Hello Spring.

Have not yet purchased this, but gotta say thumbs up for the great writeup and reference! Best fragrance writeup ever!
