hello everybody. I had just finished my 1st HP with 100% olive last weekend. I found the hardness is okay but the smell is a bit oily.

Is there any suggestion to improve the smell if my target is for baby soap ?
 
give it 6 weeks. which you would want to do anyway for an OO soap. the scent will fade.

if you want to scent it (I wouldn't) try a very low level of lavender EO maybe.
 
The oily smell definitely changes over time. Even after just a few weeks you'll find that it takes on more of a natural, "just plain soap" smell.
