would you actually USE skull soaps or candles?

General
here I am obsessing about making the highest quality soap that feels the best to use and I'm not even sure people who buy them will use them. I want to make the smell and feel amazing, and affordable enough so you don't feel guilty using your pretty skull soap since they're not that expensive. Same with candles. Either way I'm probably still going to obsess over the quality...
There's something interesting about making things in soap/candles/other ephemeral materials that makes people WANT them more because the ARE soap/candles/ect, but they can't bring themselves to use them because they're so pretty/awesome. I'm the same way.
Just ordered more soap stuff, and some candle stuff too. I'll have soaps for sale at FWA and online after, hopefully candles too if I'm super productive.
also, what're your favorite scents?

I like coconut and raspberry scented stuff :3
to guest: there's soap for you in the guest bathroom!
guest: skulls what 0_0
especially the candles
I'd probably buy one or two to keep but I would use the others of course I mean why not?
then I feel better to obsess about the quality of the soap :D
with the right price you'd easily find people who want them for both :)
especially if they look really good like a three dimensional skull and they have the bonous of looking good AND freaking out your roomated in the shower :3
though my only roommate now is my cat.
CAT SKULL SOAPS, GO!
Take apart one of those FurReal friend and leave the disembodied nightmare fuel of a robotic corpse around for your cat to find
that'll teach it to get litter everywhere >:I
I'd say the soap too but my girlfriend is reeeeeeeeally sensitive to bath products.
I love warm scents for both! Like oatmeal or pastries and creme brule, stuff like that. The exception is cucumber melon, cos I love that too!
I'm DEFINITELY buying from you at FWA this year too! haha
see you at fwa! don't be afraid of my naturally angry looking face and say hello :)
And dragons blood. And dragon fruit. Nuff said <3
My favorite scents are dragon's blood, coconut, strawberry, rose, and some musks.
But i love smells like sandalwood or earthy smells. Fruit is good but really things that smell sweet drive me crazy.
But man i would love candles and soaps like that. I'm a big fan of buying hand made soap. Charcoal is also a fav soap of mine. really good for the skin ^^.
I figure though if the scents and the soap itself are nice enough, people will get hooked and the issue of mooshing the super cool design won't be so much of an issue.
I'm odd as far as soap scents go, I like richer, spicier smells. I like charcoal soap too! Cinnamon is another favorite of mine. I once bought a bar at a farmer's market (wish I'd gotten a business card) that was 'fireside' scented, and smelled like burning cedar logs. It was amaaaazing. But I've never seen it again. :(
woodsy smells are my favorite. I've seen a few campfire/fireplace/etc scents that I've been tempted to get.... I think I should get samples of them :)
My favorite scent is coconut, plus all fruit scents and "water" ones like rain, mist, etc.. And I LOVE earthy things like mud and grass.
lavender is my least favourite <_<
id probably have a candle sit and look pretty.. then eventually light it =3 same with soap.. but using that. not lighting it on fire lol
if I'd have the money I'd definitely buy a few from you seeing your quality work already c;
especially candles <33
I'd probably end up just putting them on display anyways haha xD
Favorite scents: lavender, french vanilla, sandalwood, pepermint
Soaps, lavender and vanilla. I'd totally buy and use the soaps too :D
also i like really MYSTERIOUS scents like dragons blood, nag champa, amber, etc
The candles would be awesome. I tend to use body-wash so the soaps aren't as appealing to me, but I get a few as decorative bathroom stuff.
As far as flavours, lavender, mint, citrusy stuff and vanilla tend to be my favourites.
My favorite scents are floral, like Rose, Jasmine, Lilac and Lavender.
Depending on the pricepoint, that may change.
I made a set of cast chocolate rat dissections as joke valentine's gifts. People bought them because they loved the idea,.. But then I found people trying to freeze them and things instead of.. y'know, eating them...
As for scents, citrus all the way!
