Oh Creosote! This was a long journey for a gal in Kansas to figure out. After sending many testers, all of my responses were thumbs up for this blend. It's a dry version of the fragrant bush found in the desert.

Tested at 5.00%. Batter went to a medium thick trace instantly after adding in fragrance, but loosened enough to pour when stirred. Discolored to a light caramel color, great scent retention in cured bars.

My customers LOVE this scent! I mixed it with some of the wet creosote I had and it’s amazing.
This oil is exactly what I was looking for!
Omg. I use scents in my salon and have tried many recipes to create an organic, real scent that we all love.
I was was able to recreate the scent of our beautiful desert with this oil.
We were all amazed by the fragrance and added it to our signature scent at my salon.
The same day it rained in the valley and it smelled just like it!
Wonderful.
Amazing, close your eyes and it transports you to the desert.
Desert Creosote wet was nice but this is beyond that! It's AMAZING!!!
To me it smells just like the desert right before a rain storm. Dry and parched. Smokey. This is definitely my favorite between the two Creosotes. I want to use this alone and mix it with almost everything.
This has me definitely dreaming and wanting to get back to the desert Southwest ... like today!
after playing with the scent a little, I found letting the oil breathe for a few minutes gets rid of whatever that initial scent is. There is an industrial kind of smell to it while in the bottle. It fades entirely once on a test strip for a few minutes. I wouldn't know where to begin to explain this scent. It is as unique and intriguing as the desert itself. I am more than a little impressed with Little Bees.

Cinnamon & Vanilla is a comforting fragrance that contains a delicate balance of vanilla and cinnamon. The fragrance, cinnamon and vanilla fills your home with comfort and warmth as you settle down in the evening. I like how this fragrance is not too strong; it’s just the right amount of cinnamon and vanilla.
I make Caramel Apple Wax Melts every Fall and they are always a huge hit. That being said, I've tried just about every Caramel Apple fragrance oil I've come across. All of them have smelled very synthetic and unnatural. However, when I smelled this one, my mouth instantly watered. It's the absolute truest fragrance oil I've ever smelled. I have it sitting on my kitchen counter just so I can take a quick sniff every time I walk by 😅😂 I'm eager for the Fall, so I have a reason to put this in wax.
I didn't notice any separation, ricing, or acceleration. Soaped wonderfully & smells amazing!
No discoloration, separation, ricing, or acceleration. Soaped wonderfully & smells amazing!
I have hundreds of different fragrance oils and many I truly adore. Some I am obsessed with. There is a very, very short list of those special ones that truly knock your socks off, or at least that’s how it is for me. Well, I wasn’t expecting that with this one. I looked at it for no more than 30 seconds on the website and didn’t even remember what the notes were. I wasn’t looking for anything specific, just something that had a decent IFRA % in a certain category. This is the ultimate surprise. It’s going in literally everything application I can find to put it in safely, and I know my customers will absolutely freak over this. It’s gourmand and resinous, sweet but not. I put it in perfume oil for myself already and even after sitting in my oil for just a day, it had beautiful projection and lasted all day. I’m obsessed. It’s so dang amazing!!! Fabulous job, LB!
