BA’s quality, availability and pricing WAS once great.
Now, I’m forced to find a new vendor for yet another product. Nothing I need immediately is EVER in stock ... or worse, if it’s in my cart, it’s all of the sudden sold out when I get to checkout. I’ve been dealing with his for almost two years now. The greedy and unjust price hikes on everything! Is costing them more hundreds of customers! This particular product went up almost $30 per pound since my last purchase only a few months ago! This FO is okay. Was willing to keep purchasing when you bumped the price up last time, but this is FAR TOO much, almost quadruple the price since I started purchasing it.
Why are you bumping your prices so much? You chasing your loyal customers away?

I like it very strong lingering scent.

This was a new scent I was looking for for blending. I FOUND IT!!!!! Great lasting scent.

I don't really get any patchouli vibes with this, but I do work a lot with patchouli EO, so it could be that I'm just not used to patchouli FO interpretations. I do detect a sandalwood FO note in there, but it smells like it's sitting on a really heavy bed of bold, warm musk. It smells really different and mysterious yet there is a hint of familiarity there from the sandalwood incense I like a lot. During its dry down out of the bottle, a very mild powdery quality comes out making it smell more familiar in that sandalwood incense sort of way, but still has that unusual rich musk thing going on. I really like it but do like it all the better with something else blended into it. I am finding that this FO complements a lot of other scents really well, adds some sexy warmth and depth to florals, especially. I really recommend trying this FO if you like to blend.

This fragrance is soft, musky, and has a lot of staying power without being overwhelming. I haven't soaped with it yet, but I have used it in my conditioner and body scrubs. The fragrance is one of the best I've ever purchased from any of the major suppliers I buy from. My husband, son, and I all love it so much, I am buying a big bottle to make shampoo bars for personal use.

I wanted to like this scent, it is true to the real EO scents, smells rich and full bodied, plays well with lotion and oils. There was something about it I could not put my finger on, maybe it is a little heavy on the patchouli (I prefer the Sandalwood to be dominant). But if you are looking for a good San/Patch scent this would be the one.

Blended really well with the cocoa butter. 0.5 oz covered 2 lbs of M&P soap for me :)
