Has anyone had luck with using this eo in cp soap? After searching for a "smoky" scent Cade was recommended so I purchased from Liberty Naturals. I thought it would a somewhat thicker oil but this stuff is denser than road tar, don't know how they got it into the bottle. I tried to heat it in a double boiler and microwave, very little change. Managed to drag some out of the bottle on a skewer (ruined now) to incorporate into melted oils. This resulted in small to large hard chunks throughout which had to be filtered out numerous times. I have since learned alcohol may be the only way to dissolve it to a usable state. Not sure that could be used in soap though?? Also have conflicting information about safety. The only good thing is the filtered oil did have a very nice smoky scent which I think is holding in the soap - was going for a campfire blend. I hope I'm not stuck with a useless eo, looking for input and help as usual. BTW, the scent is nearly identical to liquid smoke to me, should have used a dollop of that maybe?:???:
