I would love to do a real Aussie Sandalwood. It would be a premium price though.

The reason for that is price of the Sandalwood. Very expensive to buy and you would be paying a premium price for the soap.
But again, it comes down to what people are prepared to pay for the real thing. Now TBH, I enjoy the scent of real sandalwood, but I don't personally want a soap made with it. Others will differ, as they should. But you already have a premium product (and I mean that), so having an elite line of authentic scents won't hurt, people will still jump into line to buy them. You could always make it a limited edition if you're worried about being stranded with excess stock.
If your definition of a prohibitive price is $35 per tub, consider the price of a tub of A&E, NO or most of the others. Yours will stand up in a comparison of value for money.
How much are you roughly talking for tallow, I would LOVE to smell REAL AUSSIE!!! Sandalwood

I'll do some more research. I looked at 1 price, I'll find the best price.

I have just ordered Lavender oil. Should be ready to go early next week.Heh, I almost did kiss the sabbatical goodbye, but Mrs Gargravarr heard me laugh out loud. I've got a birthday coming up in a couple of weeks, and she's agreed to buy me some soap for my birthday. Just a little sneaking around the edge of the sabbatical, but it's legit.
So I'm in, two please

I will work on that. I have a lot of work to do with scents, I kept it simple to start with but I am keen to take if further. RESEARCH RESEARCH RESEARCHNext scent suggestion, an original Oriental with wood and spice notes.
