Help Me Name This Soap!
I discovered Tyler Candles in a little shop in downtown Petersburg, Illinois, last April. My friend Summer and I were having a girl’s weekend away before her third baby was born. We sniffed every candle they had and both of us agreed that their signature scent called “Tyler” was definitely our favorite. I finally got around to mixing some scents together to come up with something similar for some soap. I think it smells really, really great – even if it isn’t identical. Of course I didn’t actually buy the candle while we were there, (what was I thinking??) so I don’t even know how close I am.
Here is the description of the scent according to Tyler Candles:
Bursting with the medley of currant and grapefruit. A dash of green undertones adds an opulent twist! Firmly grounded with confidence!
Give me some ideas for a name for this soap! Somehow, Grapefruit Currant just doesn’t cut it. All suggestions welcome! If I end up using yours, you will of course get a free one. This contest will close Sunday, August 10, and I will announce the winner that day.

Well, the first thing off the top of my head is “Currantly citrus”… or “Currant squeeze”, “Currant juice”, “Grapefruit twist” … well, those are my nominees! LOL!
I love grapefruit smelling things and they are refreshing.
My suggestion for the soap is “Freshly Fruity.”
Thanks!
Kathy
“Tropical Passion”, “Passion fruit”, “fruit-O-licious”. Guess it would help if I knew what a currant smelled like.
Oh well. I do like Kathy’s currantly citrus.

Thanks,

Sounds like a scent I’d love to use. My suggestion is “Crisp Currant Citrus”.
My suggestion is Citrus Swirl
Hi! I’m a newbie to your site but everthing looks awesome! I can’t wait to scrape up some funds and go shopping!!!!
My offering for the name contest is ‘Twisted Citrus’.
Thanks, Crystal
You guys have some really great ideas! I’m so glad I asked for help on this one. I can tell I will have a hard time picking a winner!!
I will give this some thought over the weekend. My first thought is “sparkling grapefruit.” The way that they discussed the candle reminds me of a description of a wine or a little sparkly. Plus, sparkly and energy go together, and grapefruit and green are energizing aromas.
grapefruit burst
Noticed a heart shape in the soap bar…”Tart Heart” or for the currant “Warm’n Tart”
This soap sounds great. My suggestion is Pink Current, sounds feminine and fruity yet sophisticated. Leslie
“Confidence”
Thanks for keeping the great suggestions coming! The contest remains open through Saturday…
So I did a little research. Apparently, grapefruit was originally called the “Forbidden Fruit” of Barbados. I had no idea! Did you? I also liked the idea of naming it for the getaway where you discovered a similar scent. That makes it a little more personal and gives you a story to tell if you are asked about the name. So, my suggestion is “Forbidden Escape”. I thought a lot about it, and I think most people are drawn to the things in life that are off limits… (maybe that is because I work with kids…) Anyway, that is my suggestion! Good luck picking a name, it’s going to be hard!
