dr bronner's soap, peppermint vs unscented

[Traffic Jam]

What do you use as the base?

My Castile soap comes from Mountain Rose Herbs and I add essential oil. Contemplating mixing some with citronella and pennyroyal.

I'm for the peppermint Dr. Bronner's over the unscented. I find the peppermint oil refreshing. I figure the odor of built-up sweat on my backpack, shoes, and other gear is going to be much more pungent than a bit of peppermint, so I don't worry about bears finding me more interesting when I scrub up.

Gonna have some insect repelling properties which I'm sure ya know. Gonna smell unusual(good) IMO as well for the other benefits.

Be careful, pennyroyal is toxic to humans: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mentha_pulegium#Toxicity
