    I want to try to make a lilac soap. I was thinking of picking some lilacs from my dad and putting it in water. Would the scent transfer that way? Or am I missing a step?

    hmm

    I recently tried this oatmeal lavender soap I found online. When I polled it out of the mold it smelled great until I cut it. After I cut it I smelled this horrid smell. I was going to try and re batch it but after it sat for a few hours the icky smell went away. Is this normal?
