This was the first time I used ROSE GERANIUM, and as much as I love the real flower from nature which is more subtle, this fragrance oil is VERY strong and overpowering. I made it back on March 1, 2020 as rose is a highly asked for scent from my customers. However, because of the strong scent the soap has been curing the entire time in our garage.
Now, that being said, that doesn't mean that this fragrance oil is bad--I did give it 5 stars after all. The fo is not to blame if I have sensitivities to strong floral fragrance oils. :) So from March 1st to May 1st the scent is very strong, so if you're looking for a rose scent that DOESN'T fade--this fo will be perfect for you! My only fault while working with RG was that I forgot to use FULL water as Carrie suggested in the description. While I was pleased as punch with the top of the soap, the bottom looked like naughty elves stomped through it. :( Also, I have never smelled Geranium essential oil so I can't say if I can detect it or not in this fo, but to me this fo is about 80% rose.
