i have been working on extracts
the combination of Dragons Blood and Rose is exceptional
what blends are you working on?
tl;dr
i thought i might share this with my soapy friends ...
Dragons blood
taken from leaves of a Dragons Blood tree (Draceana draco), one leaf will give enough sap at its base (scrape it off, it is red) to scent one small batch
Rose
red red rose
old rose variety, heavily scented, extracted in a combination of oil and wax over gentle heat
mix the scrapings and the oil
warm together
then cool
