Rum Runner

I haven't made many soaps for men in the past and I bought a really lovely fragrance oil months ago that I'd used for a cream for my husband and I realised just how damn sexy it smelt... it is described as a clean, warm sexy blend of Patchouli, Pine, Cloves, Cinnamon & Orange.  It basically smells like the sexiest man alive! No kidding you... when hubs wear the cream I made him, I could cuddle up to him and sniff him all day!

This is made with my usual blend of skin adoring oils including Sweet Almond Oil, Olive Oil and Avocado Oil (which I just reordered because I couldn't bear to not use it) and lashing of pure Cocoa Butter.  The colours are my own blend of micas in order to capture the rum idea. 

Here is Rum Runner, a soap made for men but will be loved by women too:



I really adore this scent - so warm, so clean, so mmmmmmmmmmmmmm hmmmmmmmmmm (you know what I mean girls!).  This will be fully cured by early September.

    Gorgeous soap. Do you watch TV? I always wonder how you work and get so much soap made as it seems like you make soap every day.

    You certainly have your own look, Celine. Those horizontal swirls are quite unique!

    Thanks everyone!! The fragrance of this is just lovely and I really am happy with the design of this soap.

    Oh and Michelle... I do watch TV at times (mostly whislt on the lappy) and work full time but I've been off work for the last two weeks, hence the soapathon!!!

    Celine,

    Oh that makes sense why I see so many soapies (although I love the visual treat). I thought maybe you were soaping into the late hours of the night.

    I did make the Vintage Patchouli at 2.00 am one night! I couldn't sleep (well neither could anyone else after I was banging air bubbles from the mould LOL). There'll be a noticeable slowing down of production now, sadly, as I'm back in work. I could happily give it up and soap all day, if I was allowed!
