I received an email from Jed about our Hinoki Wood Fragrance Oil. He told us how he has been using our Hinoki Wood Fragrance Oil in cold process soap for over a year. “Many people initiatively buy it because it is an interesting scent.” he wrote. “It is mostly purchased by people 40 and older. Once they use it, the reorders come in for not just one or two but five and ten bars at a time. It is my best seller now.” We really love to hear what works well for our customers. It is emails like this that really make everyone’s day around here.

“It doesn’t taste as good as it smells.” O.o
Seriously, my brother told me he tasted the Chocolate Orange soap -on purpose- because, “Anything that smells that good has to taste good, right?” He was surprised to discover it tasted like — What d’ ya know — soap!
I just got hinoki wood, too! I LOVE it… and same with me already. I gave a sample of hinoki wood soap out with an order…and she turned around and ordered 5 bars! I honestly think it smells a lot like nag champa… which I love! Definitely going to have to make more with hinoki wood. On customer told me once that she will never buy commercially made soaps again after trying mine. Stuff like that makes my day!
I’m on the other side of hinoki wood. I made some lotion, unfortunately too much to throw out and for a month, I’ve been trying to find something to mix into it to kill the smell. 50% Rose and 50% Hinoki Wood is kind of nice but for me, still too much Hinoki Wood.
