The fact that the larger the subreddits get more picky they are about posts isn't a new problem, but it has apparently gotten a lot worse in last few years. Apparently a lot of subreddits now have automoderator rules that just nuke posts based on karma or "contributor quality", whatever the hell that means.

But at the same time, some of the default subs' most prolific posts are bot reposts ad infinitum. Those never seem to get nuked even though it's crystal clear they're bot accounts...
I was making the most innocuous comments in Reddit and getting banned. I finally gave up and here I am. #RedditRefugee
I am pretty sure your best bet to get something that is roses scented but is non-toxic would be creating a tincture vegetable glycerin with roses. Take dried rose pedals and let them sit in the sun for 4-6 weeks immersed in vegetable glycerin which should impart roses smells and other rose components into the vegetable glycerin. I haven't done it myself but it is suppose to do some extractions of the compounds.
You will be extracting the essential oils and all other compounds from the rose pedals into the glycerin but in lower concentrations than a pure essential oil. (Also depending on the essential oil will have a broader range of compounds depending on how they made it)
Make sure to use roses that are not treated with pesticides and fertilizers.

I had a post deleted the other day with no mod messages or anything just for saying China should put an export tax on phones to the US.
Reddits pretty ridiculous for discussing any serious topics really.
I have no idea about the gel part, but you can make liquid soap with just vegetable oils and potassium hydroxide lye. There's lots of recipes online.
Just use some slightly dirty sea water. It will smell like you were just at the beach. You can call it "the beach".
More commonplace than you think.
Would a drop of Bulgarian rose oil not work?
EDIT: By this I mean the legitimate stuff made by hand in the countryside, not the chemically extracted stuff. It is extremely strong.
I am very fond of the Bulgarian oil. I actually have a rose garden filled with damask roses myself. But it seems that if poured in water it can damage the plants and fishes.. I wasn’t even aware of it until very recently.
I feel like it's always been like that. Did the mods give you a reason for removing your post?
