Soap lost it`s scent

I made a few of your recipes and two of them have lost their scent. They are still curing as it`s been 3 weeks only. Should I rebatch the soap. They look awesome but do not have any scent. Thank you ahead of time ;)
Answer:
If the soap looks great I would just leave them. Soap doesn't always need to have scent to be fun to use.
Next time you make a batch of soap increase the amount of scent you use. You can use up to 5% by weight of the base oils in your recipe. This means you will need to weigh out the scent rather than using the amounts measured by volume.
