Grapefruit Soap


Grapefruit Soap

My family knows I always make up my own recipes.  So, it should not be a surprise that this batch of soap contains a grapefruit.  Yes, the blenderized juice and pulp of one whole grapefruit.  The pulp and juice have added a bit of texture to the soap.  The soap lathers up great and feels good on the skin.  The fragrance is a blend composed of Calabrian bergamot, California lemon oil, mandarin, and nectarine. Watery green leaves give way to sheer luscious fruity notes of peach, apricot, and mango. Jasmine and white ginger lead the way to base notes of vetiver, oakmoss, and sweet musk.

Despite all that, here's what we smell:
Grapefruit!! 
I’m thinking
SPRING!
and this soap seems to definitely be headed in that direction.
