Flaming Candle - new scents

I took a trip to Flaming the other day to check out their new oils.  Needless to say, I came home with three of them -- would have come home with more, but I already carried some of them.

 

The Rain Water they carry smells just like the one Candle Science had/has -- not sure CS even has that one anymore...haven't carried that one for some time, so I haven't had the need to look.

 

The one that surprised me the most was Bacon.  I've steered away from all of the bacon scents for fear they smelled like dog treats :)  Their bacon is wow!!  It smells so very good!!  HIckory BBQ Smoke was another I brought home with me.  Good and strong, and no, it doesn't smell like BBQ sauce :P  It smells more like a cookout on the grill in the summer....as if the wood is glazed in a hickory BBQ scent.  Very nice and unique!

 

Driftwood is another that came home with me.  It does not smell like the one from CS that I can recall (it's been a minute since I smelled theirs).  This one is woodsy/slightly masculine.  Not super strong, but very pleasant to the nose.

.

Their Beach Wood is very nice, but I already have that one.  I personally didn't care for their Blueberry Cheesecake, but everyone has their own preferences.  I personally like the one from CS better.  The only one I didn't like at all was Spa something.  It was nice, but I picked up fruit notes I wouldn't expect nor want in a spa scent.

 

Hope this info helps some of you in deciding to try some of their new oils.   I will continue to buy from them as long as their open.  Travis & Hannah are some of the nicest people I've ever worked with!!  Best customer service I've had! <3

I've been looking for a driftwood - to use on its own, but also to mix with another scent.  Will you be using it in candles? 

 

Thanks for the info. :)

I forget what thread I posted it in , but I had ordered samples from The Flaming Candle a while back, and I loved every single one, except, so I thought, the Be Enchanted. Well, I used this fragrance in candles, and let me say, I.LOVE.IT.!!! LOVE IT!  I'm going to be reodering lots of this.  Every scent I got from I LOVE.

Thanks number20f7 for the info will try them out.

 PS may i ask? hope i am not being too nosy. Why did you stop making candles?

The wax I used was discontinued by the supplier.  There was no way I was going to go through another rigorous testing session on a new wax.  Honestly, I don't miss them.  Tarts sell better for us anyway :)

Finally got a couple of the ones I ordered into wax! 

 

I use C3

Cairns Sunset is very nice, on the lighter side, but I need to have those scents as well as strong.  I smell citrus along with light floral.

 

Driftwood, oob I was extremely disappointed (my thought was cheap men's cologne) but when I got it into wax it transformed into a woodsy fire type scent and I love it.  Hope it smells good in a burning candle, so far just melts made.
