I ordered this scent not knowing what to expect, and I was delightfully surprised! I am so excited I ended up choosing this fragrance, with its citrus like notes. First, I appreciate that it's plant-based, but most of all, the clean quality of the oils you produce is fantastic. I can use them in anything, which is such a treat. I run a small business making candles and perfume oils, crafting and curating scents for specific customers and for my own enjoyment. Since switching to your oils, I have received dozens and dozens of compliments. The enjoyment I get from working with these high-quality products is endless.

I really love this scent. Especially for our summer body care collection. It's not too sweet, not too fruity - just hits the right spot.

Not what I expected, I was disappointed by this one
Reminds me of a cotton candy scent but not overpowering. Love it.

I do love the cotton candy scent but it's just too weak. Tested this scent in my coconut/beeswax blend with wood wick. The cold throw was light but not so light that it wouldn't sell but the hot throw was not much better. I was hoping this would be a win because it really does remind me a being at the old carnivals.

I was excited to see Carnival because I love cotton candy and sweet scents. However, you'll notice there is no cotton candy in this one lol I read that but I hoped I'd like it anyway because the reviews were so great. Unfortunately, I realized I do NOT like mango scents. The mango is very strong in this one but I do get a whiff of a very authentic powdered sugar scent. Maybe one day I'll do that Private Stock option with this one. The throw is strong with this one so I was actually very happy with its performance. I made some wax melts so I can have some friends weigh in (who hopefully aren't mango haters) and let me know if they like it. Off the performance alone I'd love to offer it but we'll see!

The fragrance is plant-based. Behaves well in body washes, lotions and body butters. The quality is excellent and worth every penny!

What a fun fragrance. Worked well in body wash with an oil base.

This is my first time ordering from Stock Fragrance and I decided to try carnival and one other. This was my favorite scent! I just made a batch of body lotion and it smells so nice! I can smell the touch of powdered sugar and mango but it’s by no means too sweet smelling. Will definitely be back for more!

It's a beautiful scent that is well-behaved in everything but CP soap. Having the forethought that it might accelerate, I divided the soap batter into 7 containers and used the fragrance at 3% in 6 different colors. Soaped at 83 degrees with no water discount, only to slow down the acceleration. I was able to get a basic swirl in the pot, but ended up pouring multi-colored applesauce. The scent throw is amazing! Looking forward to using this in other body products.

Carnival is my personal favorite. It’s hard for me to put a finger on the exact scents but I love the combination. It’s sweet but not overly so. I’ve tested it in conditioner, body lotion and perfume, all were fantastic!

Leaving my CP soap performance notes here. I tested at Carnival at 4%. This one accelerated, and I had to move quickly to be able to get it into my mold. It also heated up quite a bit in the mold, went to a full gel and was solid in mere minutes. It does have a good scent retention post cure, and has discolored to a light coffee color. Smells very pleasant!

"Carnival" is such a great name for this scent, because it really does smell like the wonderful combination of scents you come across at a fair or fun gathering. It initially smells like a creamsicle, with a little hint of fruitiness, and then you get a hint of sweet funnel cakes. It's light and subtle, definitely not an "in-your-face" scent! At a 2% usage rate, it cured to the color of light brown sugar.
