The fir notes became more prominent and it seemed more masculine in the finished soap. Scent #2 did seem to fade a bit, though. The scent didn't totally disappear, but it left the soap with a very subtle, light scent. And Scent #3 is fantastic! I think it would be great if Bramble Berry added a well-behaved honeysuckle scent to their lineup!LatherBeSoapinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18018716091511424218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373649330246824979.post-76757452716147469572014-02-28T23:50:55.967-06:002014-02-28T23:50:55.967-06:00This is exactly how testing has to be done!

I enjoyed it, though, and had such fun with the mystery scents! I haven't really noticed scents changing drastically in M&P soap. Of course, they may smell less concentrated once they're added to the soap base and get diluted some, but I didn't notice the fragrance profile itself changing much in the M&P soaps. I think the saponification process in CP soap can be rough on some scents or cause them to change. Scent #2 definitely seemed to hold up better in M&P soap than in CP soap. And I looooove Scent #8!LatherBeSoapinghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18018716091511424218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373649330246824979.post-351530992842354022014-02-26T14:24:34.123-06:002014-02-26T14:24:34.123-06:00Thanks, Mom!

BB chose wisely in having you test their FOs. Thank you for noting that with MP soaps, the FOs stay the same as in the bottle, I was wondering about that after reading about how they altered in CP soaps.<br /><br />Can't wait to see what the scents are. Scents #2 and #8 sound fabulous, I hope to see those as part of their lineup soon.SoapSudsationshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11718909493010782389noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3373649330246824979.post-2488163878678025252014-02-26T10:04:09.348-06:002014-02-26T10:04:09.348-06:00Very thorough, Jer -- great attention to detail!
