Thanks Darl! We are up the coast ( we being myself and three sisters) for my oldest sister's birthday. Took this pic while walking along the beach.
@Zany-in-CO try fitting the INCI for all that on your label! Sounds wonderful though.

Good question! 
In my oatmeal, milk, and honey soap I use a wonderful Milk and Honey FO from a local shop, Zenith Supplies.
It has a sweet, soft, warm scent to it and everyone seems to love it. I'm not sure where Zenith acquires it, but it really is quite lovely. Would post a link, but they unfortunately don't have it listed on their website (I always visit directly or order by phone and pick up in person.)
Anyhow, point being a nice Milk and Honey fragrance could be a good option for you to try

What is Benzion
Benzoin resin is obtained from the bark of several species of trees in the genus Styrax. It is a common ingredient in incense-making and perfumery because of its sweet vanilla-like aroma and fixative properties. It can be used to add a vanilla scent to soap.
Hey thank you for that. It has been a while since the forums. So please bare with me while I catch up. I guess it doesn’t turn the soap brown?
In addition to the information above, there’s more information here: https://www.aromaweb.com/essential-oils/benzoin-absolute.asp including information on safe usage. As I recall, it did cause tan discoloration in the soap I made.
Mmmmmm. Benzoin resinoid is delicious. It's not an essential oil or a fragrance oil. it smells very vanilla-y and chocolate-y. I like to use it in my hot cocoa themed soap and my orange/cocoa butter soap.
Um, ahem, I'd prefer to stay dressed, thank you very much, which I think is best for all involved....
