@Tfmonkey yeah...you need to get ACs that bolster the naturals ..and in soap, can handle the alkaline conditions without changing chemically.

@Tfmonkey I've been studying perfumery and aroma chemistry for the past year doing research to start my own fine fragrance line, and have learned quite a bit. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to ask me, or you can also ask one of the myriad of professional perfumers that hangs out at the basenotes.com perfumery forums. Perfumery is such a niche hobby that the forum there is virtually majority expert level....in other words...there is a high ratio of experts to novices.

@Tfmonkey a lot of powerful, wealthy, and famous people get into fine perfumery. I feel about the basenotes.com perfumery forum the way Curtis Yarvin feels about Usenet. I have never encountered an internet space so replete with lucrative shoulders to rub.

@Tfmonkey also....Dreamwood ® is the absolute best premium Mysore Sandalwood base...it's a scientific reconstruction of natural high end aged Indian Mysore Sandalwood and is the best single material substitute for it. It's also only a fraction of the price of real sandalwood essential oils, and if you get a cheap sandalwood oil...it is most likely fake anyways....you should be suspicious of any sandalwood selling for less than $40.00 per 5ml vial.

@Chirin_the_Ram I'm still experimenting and learning the proper ratio of bees wax to coconut oil to get the candles to burn evenly.
