Poison Hemlock is a spring blooming plant which is highly toxic, as the name suggests. Per the USDA, all parts of the plant are poisonous, that’s the leaves, stem, fruit, and root, with the leaves being even more poisonous in the spring. Oddly, it is part of the carrot family.
For the reasons stated above, I’ve never really smelled the plant in the wild, nor do I plan to. That said, I can’t really say how much the hemlock plays a part in the scent of this soap. If it plays a big part, then hemlock smells quite nice. To me, it has a sweet fruity smell, and this might be due to the other scents that are involved. Whatever it is, I think it’s refreshing and different than most of the darker scents I usually gravitate towards. As expected, it performs quite well; it’s A&E.
