Love Spell wants to stick around and somy cedarwood and sage may have a slight hint of it lingering.....peachy 😉

I have it soaking in vinegar and soap. Will each hurt my molds?
 
I use silicone molds and have never had the fragrance carry over to another batch. I just wash them in hot soapy water and let them dry. Some scents stick around longer than others. But, again no carry over to other soaps made in same molds. I've been using the same molds for years and years.
 
Same here - the fragrances stay in the silicone but don’t transfer to new soap made in that mold. I still have to clean mine bc the scent buildup gives me headaches. Putting them in a 350 F oven for 10 minutes works great, but then your oven will smell like fragrance and that does transfer to food. So now I hang mine over a hot bbq grill for 5 minutes and that seems to work best.
