Customer Reviews for Cocoa Absolute
- Craving a CO2 Review by Rebecca
-
Rating Even though this is the first cacao essence I've smelled, I have no doubt this is a quality absolute compared to what other companies offer, as I feel I've hit the jackpot with all my other EB products. It really does make my mouth water (involuntary reactions don't lie!) but having spoiled myself with CO2's I sense that solvent extracts just don't quite compare.(Posted on 4/18/2016)
I'll have to disagree with the other reviewers who've stated that this smells "just like real chocolate" because when I compare this to a bar of fine dark chocolate--melted or not--there is a noticeable difference. Not so with the C02's I have (Ginger, Vanilla bourbon, Coffee) whose overall bouquets are practically identical to the real thing. Does this smell gourmet? To be honest, I don't know--my nose is different and perhaps there are chocolatiers who make products that smell very similar to this. But if I were to rate this on a scale of 0-10 (0 being a chocolate scented pencil, 3 being Hershey's syrup, and 10 being actual chocolate) I would personally give this is a 6.5. I wish I could give it a ten but there is an overall piercing quality rather than the velvety one I was hoping for. Nonetheless, looking forward to finding the right blend for this! :)
Correction from Rebecca (review updated):
In my first review I accidentally wrote "I have doubt this is a quality absolute" but LOL.
NO...I have NO doubt this is quality, none whatsoever, so my apologies. :)
I might have been premature in reviewing anyhow, as I have no Everclear presently to dilute this...BUT, I was dying to let it warm to my skin, so I did dab just the tiniest bit on my wrist. My 8-year-old noticed immediately, grabbed my arm and inhaled deliriously. And after letting it mellow and sniffing it over and over, I have to agree...
Very fine indeed. Thank you, EB--and sorry for the misprint

Rating Hands down this is the most incredible cacao extract...Ever. We use raw cacao in our deep conditioner and in our clay facial cleanse so the cacao extract adds the extra delicious umph. Well done Eden(Posted on 9/25/2015)

- YUM ! Review by Donna

Rating Absolutely amazing ! Just like chocolate .... Really !(Posted on 8/24/2015)
Since it's not oil soluble how much is needed to infuse
say a 4 or 8 oz bottle of carrier oil. My bottle is very liquid
not thick as I was expecting based on the description
If you love chocolate, get this ! You'll love it !
- WOW! Is This Even Oil? Review by Robert
-
Rating I got the sample just to try it out, and this is the best smelling "oil" I have ever had. If you love the smell of chocolate, and who doesn't, then get this. I have no idea what I will do with it yet, but it's going to be just a lot of fun finding new ways to use it with other oils. The possibilities are endless. Maybe blended with vanilla, of course, and maybe throw in some sandalwood, and agarwood oil, then for more top notes add maybe jasmine or orange or maybe ylang ylang, lime or neroli. Who knows, but I think it will be hard to miss with this one being so strong and fragrant. Great stuff!(Posted on 5/6/2015)

Rating This is a scent filled with memory, it's like chocolate but better. Don't waste time - Just buy the largest size you can afford, if you love chocolate. You won't regret it. I can't wait to try it with rose and vanilla and also in lip balms.(Posted on 3/14/2015)
