Just asking, for a friend.
Is it normal to just stare at your soap and sniff it?

Yes, and as @Kari Howie will tell you, one of these days you will also find yourself trying to sniff the soap pictures you have stored on your cell phone

People need to be soapers to understand it.

My friend sniffs my soap too. And quite often
Quite a few non soapers do too, at least in my house lol they'll come n look n sniff, and sometimes touch even so I hid most lol

Yes. Also, sometimes I wash my hands more than once in a row with different bars "for comparison"
Whenever I have a rough day at work, I go visit my soap. It’s science, but it’s also magic.

I’m happy to see this post! I thought I was just being obsessive. Whenever I get home from work I smell and touch my bars of soap curing! Thanks for letting me know I’m not alone...

It was normal for me to do that when I was new, and even a few years into it, but now I dont' really stare/sniff them other than to see if the color has morphed or the scent faded after a cure. I do however, still get UBER excited when unmolding and cutting to see what I have going on on the inside.
