I'm pretty sure the answer is no, but should castor oil smell similar to rotten eggs?
Was making soap earlier today and emptied my last 16 oz bottle of castor. Opened up the new 7 lb bottle and the smell that came out was terrible. Checked the empty bottle and it smelled similar but not nearly as strong. There was a little bit of sediment on the bottom of the new bottle, similar to what rice bran oil has.
Did some googling and got mixed information about if there's supposed to be a bad scent or no scent at all.
WSP, who it was ordered from, claims it is odorless on their website. I received it on March 28th, but there is not an expiration sticker on this bottle like everything else they send.
If it's not supposed to smell bad, the next step I guess is to see what they say.
