Grapefruit seed essential oil

[Donna]

Hi!

I'm intrigued by Grapefruit essential oil. It seems like such a lively fragrance and something I would like to use in my summer soaps.

Does anyone have other fragrances that they feel works well with the Grapefruit oil?

Thanks,
Donna

Grapefruit EO fades away very quickly; like most citrus essential oils.
If you really want that scent to come through in your soaps you'd better look for a fragrace oil.

Grapefruit essential oil DOES fade fast! I use only essential oils so I was very disappointed... "anchored" my next batch with litsea cubeba essential oil (another citrus) and it seems to be holding well now

Thanks so much for the advise.

You've saved me a lot of time and trouble. I'll combine it with a fragrance oil.!
