Pineapple and coconut was one of my first ever fragrance combos that I tried when I started soaping a few months ago, and I still love it. I was born in Thailand, so I am in search of the perfect "Thai" fragrance blend. I also wanted to do a soap with the Iowa Hawkeye colors, so here we go:
For the blend, I used pineapple-cilantro from Brambleberry, as well as Coconut Cream from Save on Scents, along with a dash of Lemongrass-lavender (local vendor) and Basil from Brambleberry. It smells mostly like pineapple; I am hoping the scent will mellow a bit as it cures.
The color does look faintly green on top in the "wet" pic but it's more of a gray. The batch took a while to set up and I kept futzing with it, trying to get the ridges on top. Which mixed the colors more than I would have liked. But I like the inside swirl!
