\"Too<\/a>\"Box<\/a>I just have to confess something: I am addicted to fragrance. I find that I am not alone in this addiction. Just talk to most any soapmaker or chandler and you will find a common theme. We are all addicted to fragrance. Our fragrance suppliers are very good at encouraging this addiction. They offer things like sampler sets where you can buy four or six small bottles to try for one low price. Before you know it, you’re buying the full size versions of each and every one. Or, you have the co-ops where a bunch of us go in together to get our fragrances for a lower price. Of course you must buy at least pound at a time to get the best price. <\/p>\n

We also buy fragrance to satisfy our customers. Someone asks if we have this fragrance or that fragrance…they tell us how wonderful it is, and next thing we know, we’ve acquired it. And I have to admit, most of the time these end up being the best sellers.<\/p>\n

So here’s my full confession: I have 95 different fragrance oils and 35 different essential oils in (and around) my soap closet, people. It’s about 53 pounds worth.<\/p>\n

I’m asking soapmakers everywhere to make their confessions. You’ll feel better. Are you addicted like I am? <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
