Was Re: Laggard Poster now - Fixing Orange

[Guest guest]

in the past few days I've been feeling better and working a bit with

an orange/vanilla blend that I want to use in a bath soak. The

problem is since the citrus is so light - it dissipates in seconds in

the steam leaving me with a hot bath, which is still nice, but not

much else.

I've ordered some Moringa oil to try and stabilize the fragrance a

bit, but I was wondering if anyone has any other suggestions for a

fixative? TIA!

Cheers,

Hi

I offered some possibilities on message 26424 in group messages... LOL

perhaps you didn't pick it up or it wasn't what you were looking for.?.... to

add to the suggestions you could include some neroli.... for a middle note to

impart body and carry through the orangeyness of the top note to the heart and

help with the follow through before reaching the creamy vanilla. As a fixation

you could add some orris abs but not much even tincture some before

adding.....to connect and marry all the notes together.

HTH again & :-D

Every good wish, Janita
