I am preparing an ylang-ylang and vanilla blend. Soap is a likely option; its formula and size remain to be confirmed. In the shop I already offer ylang-ylang soap, without vanilla, andylang-ylang essential oil.

Ylang–vanilla project in preparation.

The warmth of vanilla, a floral note to find

In my current creations, I love the gentle warmth of vanilla. With ylang-ylang, I am looking for a floral nuance that leaves vanilla its place.

The blend still needs to be tested in a formula. The product and its release date have not yet been defined.

Soap as a first possibility

I am first exploring soap: scent, texture, lather. The choice will also depend on materials, containers and the possibility of producing regularly.

In the workshop, I will prepare, smell and adjust the trials, then select a first format.

The format you would like to use

What size of ylang–vanilla soap would you like? Tell me about your habits.

I will share progress on the project once there are concrete developments.

I also tell why I am continuing the adventure on my own, another chapter for Candeur.
