You have just got to try this! It is so strong, and lasts, and lasts, and lasts. I love it and so does everyone else around me! It is a very expensive scent, at an extremely economical price.
About a year ago we used 2 ml to scent a just over a pound of melt and pour, and that was plenty. We did add some of Camden's Moroccan red clay, which may have worked as a fixitive though, too.
My mom loves the little soaps, and wont let anyone use them, lol. She has them in a dish in her bathing room. I went to visit her last week for Christmas, and I could still smell the soap! It smells nearly as wonderful as it did to begin with :) (By the way, I don't normally use m&p, the kids were making it for Grandma).
I have also been using it in tiny quanities in facial and massage oils. I love it!!!! It does smell like roses, but better. It is beautiful, and it makes me happy.
If you do decide to try it, which you really should, remember to dilute it well. It can be over powering, and at first I thought it was too much. Once I realized how potent it was, and how to dilute it better, I fell strait in love <3

Sweet, slightly floral, and herbal, a great green scent. In lotions and solid lotion bars, it works great. I have yet to try it in CP soap since I am concerned the delicacies of the scent will be lost.

This oil smells just like roses, without the nasty high price. I am not a fan of rose scents, but my customers that are love this one. Very rich, and deep.

My best seller soap is the one with this geranium EO and lavender. One day two of my customers were fighting over the last bar!

I made a blend with a few other oils that turned out not to smell the greatest. Then I added 2 little drops of this wonderful smelling oil to my blend and whalla! It was fixed. I love the potent smell of this oil!

This is a high-quality rose geranium scent - I really have enjoyed blending it in aromatherapy and also in CP soap. A nice substitute for the highly expensive rose attar.

I have really been enjoying this essential oil. The price offered for this essential oil is wonderful and the quality of it is amazing. It has a really warm rose scent that adds depth to some of the essential oil blends that I make.

I consider myself a huge geranium fan and I can't help but to buy nearly any and every geranium EO out there. This is hands down my favorite thus far. It has none of the sharpness I have found in other lesser quality geranuims. It is nothing but pure sweet, soft floral geranium bliss. I can't say enough good things about this oil - LOVE, LOVE, LOVE.

I agree with the previous reviewers. This is the most pleasant, soft and rose-like bourbon geranium oil I've encountered. It retains the fresher characteristics of standard geranium EO's but in a subtler fashion, accompanied by a crisp, slightly citrus-like rose/floral top.
