Has anybody used Tonka beans as a fragrance! I love the smell from lush in there twilight range! But Iv looked at buying the oil in the UK and can't find it or its too expensive! I'm wondering if I can use the beans to make a fragrance would it work?

You can certainly add the bean to your soap but the likeliness of getting any scent into your soap with them is not very good. The lye will likely destroy it.
